[AusNOG] AWS Direct Connect

[Cameron Daniel]

Hi Skeeve

Technically there isn't a huge difference, right now we're limited to 
the partner port speeds but that restriction will be being lifted soon 
for new circuits with an option to migrate old circuits to the new 
model.

Provisioning automation and integration with AWS is the main functional 
difference.

There are commercial implications around using a partner vs directly 
connecting, especially if you run multiple environments within AWS. 
These are some of the things that we are addressing in the new model, 
more information will be available on that in the next few weeks

Cheers
Cameron
