Simplifying Hybrid Cloud Adoption with AWS

An Introduction to AWS Outposts

After prevailing over the initial hype cycle, the cloud has truly evolved as the de facto platform of choice to run IT services, by overcoming what seemed to be an insurmountable gap between customer premises and the cloud. There have been several attempts to bridge both these worlds.

The term hybrid was initially coined as a reference to solutions that purported to operate as a cloud would in the customer data center. Ever since then, several of these kinds of denominations in the Information Technology realm have evolved and consolidated into what is now referred to as the edge. Amazon Web Services (AWS) now delivers managed cloud infrastructure in the form of AWS Outposts, which lives in the very same edge.

This chapter explores the concept of the edge and then transitions into exploring the key concepts and terminology of AWS Outposts. Finally, we will wrap up with the use cases for this product.

In this chapter, you will cover the following:

  • Identifying the edge space in the Information Technology domain
  • Understanding the purpose of AWS Outposts
  • Identifying how Outposts fits into the edge space
  • Understanding what business problems Outposts solves

Key benefits

  • Learn AWS Outposts from the ground up guided by an AWS hybrid edge solutions architect
  • Master hybrid edge concepts, use cases, and architectures and discover how AWS Outposts fits into this space
  • Become the go-to professional for designing, deploying, operating, and maintaining AWS Outposts

Description

The hybrid edge specialty is often misunderstood because it began with an on-premises-focused view encompassing everything not running inside the traditional data center. If you too have workloads that need to live on premises and need a solution to bridge the gap between both worlds, this book will show you how AWS Outposts allows workloads to leverage the benefits of the cloud running on top of AWS technology. In this book, you’ll learn what the Edge space is, the capabilities to look for when selecting a solution to operate in this realm, and how AWS Outposts delivers. The use cases for Outposts are thoroughly explained and the physical characteristics are detailed alongside the service logical constructs and facility requirements. You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of the sales process—from order placement to rack delivery to your location. As you advance, you’ll explore how AWS Outposts works in real life with step-by-step examples using AWS CLI and AWS Console before concluding your journey with an extensive overview of security and business continuity for maximizing the value delivered by the product. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to create compelling hybrid architectures, solve complex use cases for hybrid scenarios, and get ready for your way forward with the help of expert guidance.

Who is this book for?

If you are a seasoned data center professional, this book will empower you to support businesses to build hybrid edge solutions with AWS technology. It will also help AWS Cloud professionals to master a unique offering in the AWS portfolio that takes Amazon web services beyond the regions. Familiarity with AWS services and traditional data center concepts is assumed.

What you will learn

  • Discover the role of AWS Outposts in the hybrid edge space
  • Understand rack components with typical use cases for AWS Outposts
  • Explore AWS services running on Outposts and its capabilities
  • Select, order, and successfully deploy your Outposts
  • Work with Outposts resources for hands-on operations
  • Assess logical and physical security aspects and considerations
  • Monitor and log configuration and usage to improve your architecture
  • Maintain and troubleshoot hardware and software that run AWS services

This book is amazing and learned so much about utilizing AWS Outpost to accelerate the use of AWS services on-premises. Highly recommended if you are planning to move to the cloud or updating your datacenter technology. The diagrams and added shared responsibility understanding for AWS Outpost are extremely helpful.

Packt is famous for publishing applicable books that you read to know the theory and get your hands dirty.When I was introduced to this Outposts book, I was surprised about the topic and Packt's approach to content - how can I get my hands dirty with Outposts? I can't just run it on my laptop; I need to order a rack.Of course, the Outpost rack does not arrive with a book, and the reader is expected to know their DC content. But what is essential is that you get a noticeable and precise answer on how and WHY you want to use Outposts. For example, what kind of workloads does it serve, what limits does it have, how does it interact with the AWS region, and so on? How does an IAM session to an Outpost handle the global IAM or a service link outage?I managed to get all the answers from this book. Highly recommend it to infrastructure architects evaluating hybrid and edge computing for their businesses.
