AWS SiteLink bridges on-prem resources over global backbone

A new AWS Direct Connect SiteLink capability has been introduced to help enterprises create connections between on-premises networks through the AWS global network backbone.

Amazon says its AWS global backbone can serves as an alternative to the public Internet or managed connectivity service for linking private data centers to branch office resources.

Previously, such connections required routing through an AWS Region and an AWS Transit Gateway.

Currently, AWS has 108 Direct Connect locations available in 32 countries across Africa, Americas, Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East. Traffic flows from one Direct Connect location to another following the shortest possible path.
