EUCPERF02-BP03 Evaluate external data sources that your environment integrates with, and assess its impact on performance
The location of user data and the services used to deliver access to this data are key to providing the best performance for consumers of an AWS EUC deployment. Latency incurred while accessing data sources may incur additional delays and contribute to end user frustration and lack of engagement, as well as increased support calls.
Level of risk exposed if this best practice is not established: Medium
Implementation guidance
Define a data architecture that describes how data is managed, from collection through transformation, distribution, and consumption. This informs the EUC architects where to place key application and desktop delivery services and where optimization may be required to avoid performance degradation.
If migrating from an existing on-premises EUC architecture, you may need to deploy
AWS Direct Connect
Be sure to architect network solutions with low enough latency and sufficient bandwidth to support appropriate data access between desktops, applications, and any on-premises data sources.
If your AWS EUC solution integrates with services offered by other cloud providers, such as email, collaboration tools, or SaaS applications, be sure to size internet connections or private networks accordingly to avoid high latency and bandwidth constraints.
