Featured Reviews

YongjinLee - PeerSpot reviewer
Can compose a private cloud with seamless on-premises connectivity
Outposts allows customers to compose the services they want in a private cloud-like style, which is an advantage. It includes features that allow connection only on-premises without any VPN connections or Direct Connect. Additionally, AWS can manage services when deployed on customer sites due to Outposts' capability of being installed in on-premises environments.
