AWS re:Invent 2018: AWS Direct Connect: Deep Dive (NET403)

AWS Direct Connect provides a more consistent network experience for accessing your AWS resources, typically with greater bandwidth and reduced network costs. This session dives deep into the features of AWS Direct Connect, including public and private virtual Interfaces, Direct Connect Gateway, global access, local preference communities, and more.

Direct connect is one of less known topics even among AWS Professionals. This man has explained it like a charm - worth all of the 62 mins and 38 seconds!

This topic is very well explained by Justin. After watching Adrian Cantrill AWS Advanced Networking concepts, this is super easy for me to grab what Justin is saying with 1.5x speed. I am not a Network engineer, Just don’t want to understand better for designing as well as certification purpose!

[@NR-bt7yz]

Agreed!

I'm infatuated with this. I recently enjoyed a similar book, and I was truly infatuated with it. "Mastering AWS: A Software Engineers Guide" by Nathan Vale

"Everything fails all the time", really? :) Werner Vogels is a great person I agree but don't make it as if it was a quote from Fredrich Nietzsche...
