Today, we’re announcing that Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) is now available in all availability zones in the Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Canada (Central) and Europe (Paris) Regions. This expansion provides more options to leverage the scale and flexibility of AWS for running your VMware workloads in the cloud.
Amazon EVS lets you run VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) directly within your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) on EC2 bare-metal instances, powered by AWS Nitro. Using either our step-by-step configuration workflow or the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) with automated deployment capabilities, you can set up a complete VCF environment in just a few hours. This rapid deployment enables faster workload migration to AWS, helping you eliminate aging infrastructure, reduce operational risks, and meet critical timelines for exiting your data center.
The added availability in the Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Canada (Central) and Europe (Paris) Regions gives your VMware workloads lower latency through closer proximity to your end users, compliance with data residency or sovereignty requirements, and additional high availability and resiliency options for your enhanced redundancy strategy.
