A concept that has changed infrastructure architecture is now at the core of both AWS and customer reliability and operations. Even though the network design for each data center is massively redundant, interruptions can still occur. No two zones are allowed to share low-level core dependencies, such as power supply or a core network.

With a well-planned deployment, and a good infrastructure, companies can efficiently load-balance their IT environment between multiple active, cloud-based, sites. So, if one site should go down – users would transparently be balanced to the next nearest or most available data center. . Networking. Comments (required).

Hence, it’s important to protect the cloud and its various connections across various cloud environments, not just those that directly tie back to the on-premise network. In many cases, organizations adopt legacy network security solutions and architectures to secure these cloud workloads that often fail to provide complete security coverage.
