"As the future success of datacentres becomes increasingly dependent on the performance of networking components that can process massive amounts of data with minimal latency and power consumption, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has introduced a new version of its dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) transponder system, claiming to be the first cloud provider to successfully develop and deploy in-house such technology for both metro and long-haul applications at scale. AWS network infrastructure operates on two scales."
"Explaining the rationale for its DWDM development work, AWS says it has a need to innovate constantly to keep its digital highway system running smoothly and efficiently for customers around the world, and that to further improve speed and efficiency, it built the DWDM transponder system and specialised networking equipment designed for the global network. Claiming to be the only cloud provider to successfully develop"
AWS developed and deployed an in-house dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) transponder system to process massive data volumes with minimal latency and power consumption. The AWS network operates on metro links up to 400 km and long-haul links across thousands of kilometres to connect regions. The DWDM transponder serves both metro and long-haul applications at scale and became part of a portfolio of purpose-built networking technologies. AWS combined specialised optical modules from partners with its own chassis, short-reach connections and control systems, and adapted software to integrate custom hardware into its global networking platform.
