AWS Launch Wizard and AWS Service Catalog

Many organizations rely on external enterprise solutions for their operations. Managing the installation, licensing, and cloud deployment of these tools can be complex, and mishandling any part of the process can lead to significant challenges, including legal issues. To address these challenges, AWS offers services like AWS Launch Wizard and AWS Service Catalog, which simplify the deployment and management of external enterprise applications on the cloud.

AWS Launch Wizard

AWS Launch Wizard is a service that helps us deploy, configure, and manage complex external enterprise applications on AWS. It is designed to simplify the deployment process of applications like Microsoft SQL Server, SAP HANA, and others. Launch Wizard provides a guided, step-by-step procedure and removes the complexities involved in setting up the necessary AWS resources, ensuring that best practices for security, scalability, and availability are integrated into the deployment process while leaving room for customization to meet specific requirements. This ensures that applications are set up following industry standards, reducing the risk of misconfigurations.
