This Guidance shows how you can use a satellite infrastructure for critical and noncritical workloads with multiple resiliency types, such as development and test resiliency, high resiliency, or maximum resiliency. By using AWS Direct Connect in conjunction with a satellite infrastructure and the best practices outlined here, you can establish resilient network connections between your AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and your on-premises infrastructure. This Guidance helps you extend your access to AWS resources in a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective way.
