Connect your network to AWS with hybrid connectivity solutions
summary
AWS Direct Connect provides dedicated fiber with up to 100 Gbps per connection and private/transit/public VIFs (private: up to 10 VPCs; transit: up to 3 TGWs; 20 prefixes advertised), using Direct Connect gateway + BGP; AS‑path prepending avoids asymmetric routing. Site‑to‑Site VPN gives 1.25 Gbps per VPN tunnel with ECMP and an Accelerated option that enters the AWS backbone via Global Accelerator (96 PoPs) for congestion‑free paths. Branches use Transit Gateway Connect to link SD‑WAN (GRE+BGP, 5 Gbps per attachment) and Client VPN supports AD/SAML/cert auth.
