About This Architecture
AWS Outposts hybrid architecture extends AWS services on-premises with a dedicated rack running EC2, ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, and EFS locally while maintaining connectivity to AWS Region via Direct Connect and Transit Gateway. Corporate users access on-premises applications through a corporate firewall and core router to an Application Load Balancer, while internet users route through WAF protection. Data synchronization occurs between local RDS instances and Aurora replicas in us-east-1, with CloudWatch and CloudTrail providing unified observability across both environments. This pattern solves low-latency, data residency, and regulatory compliance challenges for enterprises requiring on-premises compute without sacrificing AWS managed services.
