Amazon Web Services deployments
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cloud services platform that enables enterprises to securely run
applications on the virtual cloud. The key components of AWS are Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud
(EC2) and Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).
When you deploy Avaya Aura
®
Web Gateway in an AWS environment, you must also deploy a
local LDAP server in AWS. This LDAP server is a replica server that synchronizes content from a
master LDAP server within the enterprise. To reduce latency for authentication and directory
lookup operations, this LDAP server must be collocated with Avaya Aura
®
Web Gateway in the
same AWS region.
Note:
Use the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) for managing AWS services from your computer.
For more information about setting up the AWS CLI, see
https://aws.amazon.com/cli and
