Guidance on Establishing Connectivity Between AWS EKS and Azure Services

0

A customer has a specific requirement: they need to establish connectivity between their AWS EKS cluster and Azure services. Currently, they have set up a Direct Connect via a Transit VIF for their AWS account and an Express Route for Azure.

My question is, could you kindly recommend the necessary steps or provide a reference link for configuring peering between AWS and Azure to facilitate this connectivity?

Hello.

If you have already connected AWS and on-premises with DirectConnect, you can communicate by connecting on-premises and Azure with Express Route and setting the appropriate routing.
Alternatively, you can configure AWS and Azure to interconnect using services that support multi-cloud connectivity, such as Megaport.
I think the following documents will be helpful.

  • Thanks Riku for the feedback! can you please suggest with any example reference for setting the appropriate routing.( Example ip route 10.x.x. 255.255.255.240 <AWS_DirectConnect_Next_Hop_IP> ip route 172x.x.x 255.255.255.240 <Azure_ExpressRoute_Next_Hop_IP>) Is my understanding correct ?

  • Yes, I think your understanding is correct. In order to route with an on-premises router, a route to AWS VPC and a route to Azure must be configured.

  • Agree here. I have aws connected to azure in several locations but that’s via S2S vpn over the internet. If you want to connect DX and Express route you need a 3rd party to connect the 2 either via on premises or via a multi cloud communication company such as Riku has mentioned or Equinix who can connect both providers together.
