Prior to the launch of the Melbourne AWS Region, many Australian and New Zealand AWS customers may have been using overseas AWS Regions or other providers for disaster recovery solutions and/or backup storage. Now that Australia is home to two AWS Regions, these organisations are presented with an opportunity to re-evaluate and consolidate their disaster recovery solutions and backups within Australian borders (and a local region in Perth).

In addition, the presence of two AWS Regions within Australia allows for new highly resilient multi-region architectures for your mission-critical applications that had not previously been possible, whilst maintaining data sovereignty within Australian borders.

The benefit to an APRA-regulated customer is that Australian multi-region hosting eliminates a number of additional risks which can that can impede a regulated entity’s ability to meet its obligations; or impede APRA from fulfilling responsibilities considered necessary in its role as prudential regulator

Having provided a number of financial services and APRA-regulated organisations with industry-leading cloud solutions, and being one of very few professional services organisations within Australia to have been awarded the Financial Services Consulting Competency from AWS, CMD Solutions has the expertise necessary to help your organisation take advantage of the recently launched Melbourne AWS Region.
