Summary

This chapter started with a discussion of the various options available and how best complex organizations can communicate in a hybrid cloud setup between their on-premises network and their AWS environment. You also looked at specific AWS cloud storage solutions that enable hybrid cloud solutions and extend the capabilities of your on-premises infrastructure.

You then reviewed how complex organizations can make the most of the connectivity options offered by AWS to improve their network security, reliability, and performance postures.

All the network constructs that you have reviewed in this chapter constitute the core components that complex organizations will inevitably leverage when laying out their AWS environment network topology.

The next chapter will focus on how you can best organize and structure your resources within your AWS environment, covering (among other things) topics such as AWS Organizations, service control policies (SCPs), and AWS Control Tower.
