Amazon EVS is now available in additional Regions
Today, we're announcing that Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) is now available in the Asia Pacific (Seoul), Europe (Zurich), and Europe (Stockholm) 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. You can set up a complete VCF environment in just a few hours, enabling rapid workload migration to AWS to help you eliminate aging infrastructure, reduce operational risks, and meet critical timelines for exiting your data center. This launch supports all existing Amazon EVS features, including VCF 9.0 and 9.1 support to take advantage of the latest VMware features, such as memory tiering.
The added availability in these 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.
