vEdge in AWS

[xshant]

Hi,

Can someone please confirm what license / subscription i need to run vEdge in AWS (VPC), there is SKU in CCW for vEdge cloud router plus the following link:

https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/seller-profile?id=c3586559-6dd3-4614-abaf-5fcc38166f20

which one is needed?

You do not purchase the vEdge cloud license from the AWS marketplace.  It is a Bring Your Own License (BYOL) model.  You do pay for the EC2 usage in AWS of course.

The CCW SKU for ordering vEdge cloud is "L-LIC-DNA-ADD".  Within that main SKU, you select "Vedge Cloud" as the "device".

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Just want to understand when you go on the following link it says "Viptela vEdge Cloud Router"

https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B06XHY1P6J?qid=1554158764957&sr=0-1&ref_=srh_res_product_title

so whats this?

There are two elements of deploying vEdge Cloud in AWS:

1.  The vEdge cloud license.    This you purchase from Cisco (or Cisco partner), which is why they say "BYOL" (Bring Your Own License) at least twice on the page.  Note that under "Software Pricing Details" you will see the "Viptela vEdge Cloud Router" is $0 per hour.   Without the license you cannot deploy the vEdge cloud on AWS.   However, you still have to pay for the compute inrastructure provided by AWS.   See #2 below.  ;-)  

2.  The EC2 instance.  This you order on the AWS marketplace. 

(Note that deploying vEdge Cloud in Microsoft Azure is the same concept)
