Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) now supports the ability to specify supported combinations of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and ESX software versions when setting up your EVS environments and hosts.
Amazon EVS lets you run VCF natively within your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), powered by AWS Nitro EC2 bare-metal instances. Amazon EVS automates deployment of a complete VCF environment in hours using either an intuitive step-by-step configuration workflow on the AWS console or the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI). This newest enhancement addresses the critical need for version flexibility to help you migrate workloads to AWS faster, reduce operational complexity and risk, and meet data center exit deadlines with Amazon EVS.
With software versioning support, you can now a specify VCF version when creating new environments using the CreateEnvironment API and select an ESX version when adding new hosts to existing environments using the CreateEnvironmentHost API. You can also query supported version combinations with the new GetVersions API. As part of this capability, we’re also adding support for new environment deployments with VCF 5.2.2.
