So VMWare on AWS is the only supported model based on the documentation. I've not seen how that really works but it appears that VMWare has some specific AWS configuration in order to support UCCE.

Thanks David for the reply. Do you know what's that special configs of VMware in AWS.

I don't have any specifics, but it appears that you can find a bit more here. https://community.cisco.com/t5/unified-communications/cisco-uc-on-vmware-cloud-on-aws/td-p/3435818

Hi, Can someone let me know does Cisco TAC support PCCE hosted on AWS? I am planning to deploy PCCE on AWS by purchasing baremetal hardware and install ESXi on it and host PCCE solution.

See the discussion below you have to do it on VMWare on AWS for it to be supported.

VMware on AWS is no longer a supported CCE deployment option.

[david.macias]

Well that was short lived. Can you share any details on why that was decided?

David,

I understand it was because that particular IaaS model of VMware Cloud on AWS proved unattractive with partners/customers and gained minimal interest and traction.

[david.macias]

I can see that, if I remember correctly I did a quick pricing check and it was very very expensive.
