Overview of this book

The surge in connected edge devices has driven organizations to capitalize on the opportunities presented by the massive amounts of data generated by these devices. However, adapting to this landscape demands significant changes in application architectures. This book serves as your guide to edge computing fundamentals, shedding light on the constraints and risks inherent in selecting solutions within this domain. You’ll explore an extensive suite of edge computing services from AWS, gaining insights into when and how to use AWS Outposts, AWS Wavelength, AWS Local Zones, AWS Snow Family, and AWS IoT Greengrass. With detailed use cases, technical requirements, and architectural patterns, you’ll master the practical implementation of these services and see how they work in real life through step-by-step examples, using the AWS CLI and AWS Management Console. To conclude, you’ll delve into essential security and operational considerations to maximize the value delivered by AWS services. By the end of this book, you'll be ready to design powerful edge computing architectures and handle complex edge computing use cases across multiple AWS services.

Introduction to AWS Wavelength Zones

While AWS Local Zones bring AWS services closer to end users, AWS Wavelength Zones take it one step further, embedding these services within carrier networks themselves. This tight integration ensures that 5G clients experience ultra-low latencies, while even 4G/LTE clients benefit from significantly improved response times.

AWS Wavelength Zones represent a fusion of cloud computing with mobile edge computing, setting the stage for the next generation of latency-sensitive applications.

Comparing AWS Wavelength deployments across global carriers

AWS Wavelength is a series of individual partnerships with carriers around the world.

An EC2 instance, or ECS/EKS container in an AWS Wavelength Zone, is specifically meant to service requests coming from mobile devices on that MNO’s network. SLAs for a given mobile device around latency, jitter, and similar network parameters are specific to each MNO:
