AWS announces AWS Interconnect - last mile with AT&T in gated preview

AWS Interconnect - last mile offers a fully managed connectivity service to link branch offices and data centers to AWS with a few clicks, now in gated preview with AT&T, combining AWS cloud innovation with AT&T's extensive network for high availability and SLA-backed service.

AWS has launched AWS Interconnect - last mile, a fully managed connectivity service that enables customers to connect their branch offices, data centers, and remote locations to AWS with just a few clicks, eliminating the friction and complexity of network setup. Now in gated preview with AT&T, AWS Interconnect - last mile combines AWS cloud innovation with AT&T’s extensive network footprint. Customers can instantly establish private, high-speed connections to AWS by selecting their preferred AWS Region, bandwidth speed, Direct Connect Gateway ID, and partner subscriber ID. Once initiated, AWS generates an activation key to complete provisioning with AT&T. The launch simplifies the connectivity experience by pre-provisioning capacity and automating complex network configuration, including BGP peering, VLAN configuration, and ASN assignment. Customers benefit from zero down-time maintenance. The service is designed for high availability and backed by an SLA. AWS Interconnect - last mile is available as a gated preview with AT&T for customers in the US starting today. Partners can also easily adopt it via a published open API package on GitHub. For more information, see the AWS Interconnect - last mile documentation and request access here.
