Best practices for running applications at the edge
summary
Vector runs an advanced distribution management system on AWS Outposts inside two physically isolated data centres, serving a city that holds ~30% of New Zealand’s population and GDP. Architecture uses a stretched VPC with a local gateway so application traffic stays on-prem, prefilled capacity nodes for n+1 redundancy, and CI/CD that deploys zero‑downtime, one instance at a time. The deployment meets strict latency and reliability goals and performs to expectations.
