Plan a Prisma SD-WAN AWS Virtual Deployment

Learn the prerequisites of deploying a vION in AWS.
A virtual ION device can be deployed to an AWS VPC or a Transit Gateway environment and assigned to a Prisma SD-WAN Data Center type of site only.
Figure 1 shows an example of branch deployments connecting to applications hosted in different AWS VPCs, with a Prisma SD-WAN ION device in AWS acting in a Data center deployment model.
With cloud services such as AWS, there may be a single VPC with workloads behind it as previously shown. However, there may be instances where there are multiple workloads and multiple associated resource groups.
In order to accomplish this, AWS Transit Gateway connects VPCs and on-premises networks through a central hub. This simplifies your network and puts an end to complex peering relationships. It acts as a cloud router – each new connection is made only once.
With this type of deployment, a Prisma SD-WAN ION device may be placed in the logical location in a Transit Gateway, depending on the design of the organization.
