AWS Outposts - How AWS Pricing Works

AWS Outposts

AWS Outposts is a fully-managed service that extends AWS infrastructure, AWS services, APIs, and tools to any data center, colocation space, or on-premises facility. Outposts is ideal for workloads that require low latency access to on-premises systems, local data processing, or local data storage.

Outposts are connected to the nearest AWS Region to provide the same management and control plane services on premises for a truly consistent operational experience across your on-premises and cloud environments. Your Outposts infrastructure and AWS services are managed, monitored, and updated by AWS just like in the cloud.
