AWS Transit Gateway for AWS Middle East (Bahrain) Region supported by AWS Direct Connect

Amazon Web Services recently introduced AWS Direct Connect support for its AWS Transit Gateway in the AWS Middle East region, Bahrain to be precise. This new service will help the users connect multiple AWS regions to their on-premises networks using AWS Direct Connect Connections. By connecting thousands of Amazon Virtual Private Clouds i.e. Amazon VPCs, it will allow the users to access almost every AWS Region with China being an exception. AWS Direct Connect is bringing a new type of virtual interface to support connectivity to AWS Transit Gateway, called the transit virtual interface to support connectivity. Using your 1/2/5/10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connections you can create a transit virtual interface at any AWS Direct Connect locations but China. It is recommended to attach at least two transit virtual interfaces from different AWS Direct Connect locations to the Direct Connect gateway for increasing the resilience of your connectivity. It is available for 20 AWS Regions and AWS Transit Gateway for other regions shall be seen in the market very soon.
