Connect to AWS

AWS offers multiple connection options for infrastructure administration, user access, and data movement. Although you can quickly and easily connect to AWS over a simple internet connection, AWS recommends that customers connect with either AWS Site-to-Site VPN or AWS Direct Connect. AWS Direct Connect is a network service that provides a private, secure, and low-latency connection from your data center, office, or co-location environment to AWS. In many cases it can reduce your network costs, increase bandwidth and throughput, and provide a more consistent network experience than internet-based connections. Both Services can enable secure connections, and AWS Direct Connect can provide a high-bandwidth connection suitable for large amounts of data ingress and egress.
