AWS › AWS Outposts & Hybrid Cloud
How can an organization design a consistent CI/CD and application deployment strategy that spans both standard AWS cloud regions and an on premises Outposts deployment?
AdvancedAnswer
Because Outposts supports the same APIs and services as the standard AWS cloud, existing CI/CD pipelines built with tools like CodePipeline and CodeDeploy can often be extended to deploy the exact same application artifacts to Outposts based resources with minimal modification, typically requiring only changes to target the specific Outposts subnet or resource identifiers, allowing organizations to maintain a single consistent deployment pipeline across both their cloud region and on premises Outposts environments.
