This expansion helps organizations optimize latency and address data residency needs while retaining centralized management through their home Region.

AWS Outposts Adds Dell and HPE External Block Volumes

🔒 Customers can now attach boot and data volumes backed by Dell PowerStore and HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 arrays to Amazon EC2 instances on AWS Outposts, with support for authenticated and encrypted volumes. This extends external block volume support alongside NetApp and Pure Storage, enabling use of on‑premises enterprise arrays for OS boot volumes and high‑performance data volumes. AWS provides automation scripts via AWS Samples and access through the Console or CLI; third‑party integration is available on Outposts 2U servers and racks at no additional charge.

AWS Outposts expand to Canada (Central) and N California

📢 Second-generation AWS Outposts racks are now supported in the AWS Canada (Central) and US West (N. California) Regions. Outposts racks extend AWS infrastructure, services, APIs, and tools to on-premises data centers or colocation spaces, providing a consistent hybrid experience. Customers can order racks connected to these Regions to optimize for latency and data residency, run low-latency workloads locally, and maintain centralized management in their home Region.

AWS Expands Second-Generation Outposts Racks Globally

🌍 AWS now ships second-generation Outposts racks to a broad list of countries, enabling customers to deploy AWS infrastructure and services directly in on‑premises data centers and colocation sites. These racks support the latest x86 Amazon EC2 families — C7i, M7i, and R7i — delivering up to 40% better performance versus prior racks, simplified network scaling, and a new class of accelerated networking instances for ultra-low latency and high throughput. They also help address local data residency and low-latency processing requirements while remaining connected to the nearest AWS Region for management.
