AWS regards IPv6 as a key mechanism to enable customer agility, and to meet rising demands from new applications and devices, particularly around IoT.

In this episode, Scott and Tom interview Alan Halachmi, Senior Manager of Solutions Architecture at AWS and co-author of AWS Certified Advanced Networking Official Study Guide.

Alan has been advocating IPv6 adoption since the 1990s and brings excellent insight into IPv6 at AWS and beyond.

AWS supports IPv6 natively in its VPCs and other services including CloudFront and Route 53.

Topics discussed include:

* How IPv6 benefits public-cloud infrastructure

* Current and planned IPv6 support for AWS services

* Challenges AWS faced in deploying IPv6

* Alan’s advice for customers using IPv6 in AWS
