In a recent blog post, Amazon announced the release of AWS Outposts, which allows AWS customers to take advantage of a single-vendor compute and storage solution. The Outposts architecture is based upon Amazon public cloud compute architecture but is hosted in a customer data center. This solution allows customers to take advantage of AWS technology, but addresses local processing and low latency requirements. Customers place infrastructure orders online, Amazon will then ship the modular compute rack and a trained AWS technician will connect, set up and validate the installation.

The Outposts hardware is the same that runs in AWS data centers. Anthony Liguori, an engineering lead on the AWS Outposts team, compares the public cloud experience with Outposts:
