- alexforencich 10y agoDoesn't look like it from the article. That could be very interesting, but there could be network architecture constraints that prevent Amazon from providing that from the get-go. And it wouldn't be used in all cases, so that could burn a lot of switch ports. Seems like they're targeting more compute offload and less network appliance.
