Architecting a secure landing zone in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud
Brief
The AWS European Sovereign Cloud is a new, independent cloud for Europe, physically and logically separate from existing AWS Regions and operated within the European Union (EU). It provides the same services, features, and APIs as AWS commercial Regions, but runs as a distinct AWS partition (aws-eusc), with its own control plane, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) , billing, console, and service endpoints.
Understanding the partition boundary is the key that unlocks correct answers to questions about billing roll-ups, single sign-on (SSO), cross-account roles, AWS Direct Connect , and image distribution. In this post, we show you how to architect a secure, scalable landing zone in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud.
