Episode 50: Connectivity Options: VPN, Direct Connect, Internet

In this episode, we examine the various connectivity options available for linking your on-premises environments with AWS, focusing on AWS VPN, AWS Direct Connect, and internet-based connections. AWS VPN allows you to establish a secure and encrypted connection between your on-premises network and your AWS environment over the public internet. This is a cost-effective solution for many organizations, but it may not be suitable for high-throughput or low-latency applications due to the variable performance of the internet.Next, we’ll dive into AWS Direct Connect, a dedicated network connection between your data center and AWS. Direct Connect provides more consistent performance, lower latency, and higher bandwidth than VPN connections, making it ideal for organizations with large data transfer needs or those requiring a more stable connection. Finally, we’ll discuss how internet-based connections are typically used for less sensitive workloads and applications that don’t require the security or reliability provided by VPN or Direct Connect. By the end of this episode, you’ll be able to assess the best connectivity option for your organization based on performance, cost, and security requirements.
