GigaVUE V Series in AWS
V Series in AWS can be deployed in two ways – with or without the use of a V Series Proxy.
When deployed with Proxy, GigaVUE-FM communication with the V Series Node via the Proxy node. This is typically useful when GigaVUE-FM is deployed in a VPC that is different than where V Series Nodes are deployed, which makes direct communication with the V Series Nodes unfeasible.

Note: Additional instance types are also supported. Refer to Support, Sales, or Professional Services for deployment optimization.
Starting in the 5.12.00 release, V Series 2 deployments in AWS can also be deployed in conjunction with a Network Load Balancer. Refer to the
More detailed information and step-by-step instructions for deployment, refer to the Configure GigaVUE Fabric Components in GigaVUE-FM topic in the GigaVUE Cloud Suite for AWS–GigaVUE V Series 2 guide.
