在一个日益连接的世界中，访问我们的设备和应用的需求是24/7。身临其境的实时体验，例如虚拟工作站，AR/VR，智能城市，智能制造，互联车辆，实时多人游戏等。提供这些设备和应用程序的公司需要最终用户的实时响应能力。为了实现这样的壮举，他们需要尽可能靠近客户的云服务和基础架构。越来越多的公司希望利用云更接近其数据和客户所在的位置，包括在主要的大都市地区。如果您的公司可以在这些情况下访问云基础架构和服务，而无需投资昂贵的数据中心或将计算和存储放置在共同位置设施和边缘地点上怎么办？
以世界领先的流娱乐服务Netflix为例，Netflix的艺术家需要图形密集型的虚拟工作站来渲染3D模型和动画。内容创作者和艺术家通常需要从办公室到卫星位置的五毫秒延迟，这使他们可以处理实时生产和视频编辑等工作负载，同时双方都提供无抖动的体验。由于多位艺术家需要同时研究渲染或动画，因此他们需要超低潜伏期访问其工作站才能提供最佳的创意体验。通过利用Intel驱动和成本效益的AWS计算AWS本地区域中的资源，Netflix可以在更靠近艺术家的房屋的地方部署可靠和低延迟虚拟台式机基础架构（VDIS）。结果，Netflix能够将其内容创建过程的一部分迁移到AWS本地区域，同时为艺术家提供差异化的最终用户体验。
AWS本地区域
In major urban areas, your business can leverage cloud infrastructure and services located close to your end users to deliver applications that require ultra-low latency using AWS Local Zones. It’s easiest to think of a Local Zone as an extension of AWS Regions—they use the same AWS Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) infrastructure that’s available in the cloud and feature the same Intel Xeon Scalable processors, as well as other AWS cloud services. Applications deployed in a Local Zone can also be configured to automatically scale as needed to meet demand, allowing your team to focus on building new and differentiated customer experiences. Now, you can effectively use cloud infrastructure and services at the edge to deliver your applications using AWS compute, storage, database, and other services. Suddenly, theoretical transactions and interactions become possible.
低延迟和本地数据处理
AWS Local Zones open the door to new possibilities. They enable you to deliver innovative applications and services—like interactive gaming experiences that require single-digit millisecond latency. As a leading game hosting service provider, Edgegap can provide the best online experience for players by deploying game servers even closer to where the players are—elevating the gaming experience to new heights. For some of their clients, such as Triple Hill Interactive and their fighting gameDie by the Blade，在最佳条件下，能够在最佳条件下举办全球1-Versus-1在线锦标赛是他们根本无法使用传统服务提供商做的事情。对于其他人，例如Agog及其快节奏的竞技场射击游戏Brutal Grounds，每场比赛都必须在所有玩家提供公平环境的最佳位置部署。AWS本地区域为EdgeGap提供了灵活性，以在所有这些情况下增强游戏出版商客户的玩家体验。
本地区域还可以通过在最终用户附近执行计算和分析来支持增强现实/虚拟现实（AR/VR）应用程序。连接回到您的其他工作负载以及全部内部服务范围内，您可以通过相同的API和工具集管理所有内容。同样，组织可以运行计算密集型模拟，例如地球科学探索，基因组学，财务风险建模以及靠近当地资源和最终用户的船舶设计。每个行业对低延迟和本地数据处理都有自己的要求。通过提供最低的延迟，这两个要素一起为最终用户提供了丰富而引人入胜的体验。
加速您的云迁移
大型地铁中心中低潜伏期云基础架构和服务的另一个用例是促进企业云迁移。可能无法立即关闭您的数据中心并从云中运行所有内容。数据隐私，居住或主权问题，甚至是旧版数据库体系结构，都可能需要一些本地存在。但是存在可以帮助您开始的解决方案。使用AWS本地区域将Web前端移至云中，将在数据中心中提供高宽带，安全，低延迟的访问权限。这减少了堆栈前端所需的数据中心足迹，并使您的企业有机会开始现代化应用程序并迁移到云的过程。
AWS本地区域
AWS Local Zones are a type of AWS infrastructure deployment that places AWS compute, storage, database, and other select services close to highly populated cities, industries, and IT centers. This means that you’re able to take advantage of AWS infrastructure and services closer to where your applications need to be deployed. Local Zones bring all of the elasticity, scalability, and security benefits of the cloud directly to you, enabling you to deploy latency-sensitive applications closer to your end users and pay only for the resources you use—ultimately giving you a smooth, seamless, and reliable AWS experience. What opportunities will you unleash with the edge?
