As organizations migrate their enterprise workloads to the cloud, location of cloud services is becoming an increasingly important factor in their decision for cloud adoption. For workloads that are latency sensitive, or are subject to regulatory requirements to keep data local, like in industries like financial services, online gaming, or in the public sector, accessing cloud services near their end users or the source of data is a critical criteria for cloud adoption. AWS Local Zones are AWS deployed infrastructure that places compute, storage, database, and networking services closer to end users or industry centers, in large metropolitan areas to support these location sensitive workloads. In this TechTalk learn how to effectively architect with AWS Local Zones to achieve low latency for your applicatioons, meet data residency requirements and manage hybrid cloud migrations.
