ssm patch manager to patch servers from other cloud vendors

Question

How can i use ssm patch manager to patch servers from other cloud vendors?

Accepted Answer

From an AWS perspective, servers hosted in other cloud vendors are external and are therefore exactly like on-premises servers.

The instructions for using SSM for on-premises servers are here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prescriptive-guidance/latest/patch-management-hybrid-cloud/design-on-premises.html - they apply equally to servers in other cloud environments.

You might also find [IAM Roles Anywhere](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/extend-aws-iam-roles-to-workloads-outside-of-aws-with-iam-roles-anywhere/) useful.

Answer

Dispatch manager have an agent? Often the AWS services allow you to download an agent of a service provided by AWS.
