Frankfurt is among the supported regions. The connection between AWS and Microsoft Azure has been available there in public preview since August 2026. For platform teams, costs, responsibilities, and securing each cloud environment remain their own items to review.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n<div style=\"background:#f8fbfd;border:1px solid rgba(11,183,253,0.28);border-radius:8px;padding:22px 26px;margin:16px 0 34px;box-shadow:0 1px 0 rgba(11,183,253,0.08),0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.03);\">\n<ul style=\"margin:0;padding-left:20px;line-height:1.75;color:#1a2733;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong>The connection to Google Cloud is generally available.<\/strong> AWS announced the release on April 14, 2026, following a preview that started in November 2025.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong>Frankfurt also supports the Azure preview.<\/strong> AWS announced the public preview for the connection to Microsoft Azure on August 31, 2026.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A free AWS quota covers only one side of the connection.<\/strong> The other cloud provider sets its own prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>From Preview to Regular Offering<\/h2>\n<p>AWS announced <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/about-aws\/whats-new\/2025\/11\/preview-aws-interconnect-multicloud\/\" style=\"color:#0879aa;text-decoration:underline;text-decoration-thickness:1px;text-underline-offset:3px;\">Interconnect &#8211; multicloud at the end of November 2025 as a preview<\/a>. Google Cloud was the first partner. The goal is to provide private connections with dedicated bandwidth between AWS and other cloud environments without customers having to build the underlying infrastructure themselves.<\/p>\n<p>On April 14, 2026, <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/about-aws\/whats-new\/2026\/04\/aws-announces-ga-AWS-interconnect-multicloud\/\" style=\"color:#0879aa;text-decoration:underline;text-decoration-thickness:1px;text-underline-offset:3px;\">general availability with Google Cloud<\/a> followed. The original article classified that date as the start of the preview. For architecture decisions, the difference matters: a generally available connection and a preview feature must each be evaluated against their specific contract terms and operational requirements.<\/p>\n<h2>Frankfurt Connects AWS and Google Cloud<\/h2>\n<p>In Frankfurt, the service connects the AWS region eu-central-1 with Google Cloud Frankfurt. With the managed connection, teams are spared the work of building the physical infrastructure. Network design, access rights, and securing the applications remain part of their own architecture planning.<\/p>\n<p>For a test, a clearly scoped use case makes sense, such as connecting two test environments. This allows teams to examine routing, monitoring, failover behavior, and responsibilities before production dependencies arise.<\/p>\n<h2>Azure Is in Public Preview<\/h2>\n<p>Since August 31, 2026, AWS has offered the <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/about-aws\/whats-new\/2026\/08\/aws-announces-AWS-interconnect-multicloud-microsoft-azure-preview\/\" style=\"color:#0879aa;text-decoration:underline;text-decoration-thickness:1px;text-underline-offset:3px;\">connection to Microsoft Azure as a public preview<\/a>. Frankfurt is among the regions named by AWS. Teams with three cloud providers can already examine the connection and should factor the differing product statuses into their planning.<\/p>\n<p>A shared network connection, on its own, determines neither the portability of an application nor its identity and authorization concept. These questions belong in the assessment of the overall multicloud architecture.<\/p>\n<h2>Review Costs and Operations Before Deployment<\/h2>\n<p>AWS offers a <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/about-aws\/whats-new\/2026\/05\/aws-interconnect-multicloud-offers-free-500-mbps-tier\/\" style=\"color:#0879aa;text-decoration:underline;text-decoration-thickness:1px;text-underline-offset:3px;\">free quota with 500 Mbit\/s<\/a> for a local connection under the conditions specified by AWS. It applies to the AWS side. The respective other cloud provider charges for its side independently. A cost comparison should therefore include both providers and the planned data volume in the calculation.<\/p>\n<p>Before a production rollout, teams should also review the applicable service terms, support channels, and procedures for outages. Where data residency requirements apply, the actual data path must be assessed separately.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>Is the connection between AWS and Google Cloud available in production?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 4px 24px;color:#555;line-height:1.6;\">AWS announced general availability on April 14, 2026. Whether the connection is suitable for a specific production application depends, among other things, on its requirements and the applicable terms of service.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>Is Microsoft Azure connected in Frankfurt?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 4px 24px;color:#555;line-height:1.6;\">Yes. AWS names Frankfurt as one of the regions of the public Azure preview announced on August 31, 2026.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>Is a test with the free AWS tier completely free of charge?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 4px 24px;color:#555;line-height:1.6;\">That cannot be concluded from this alone. The free tier applies to the AWS side and is subject to conditions. The other cloud provider sets its own prices.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<h2>Editor&#8217;s Reading Recommendations<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"list-style:none;margin:0 0 8px;padding:0;\">\n<li style=\"padding:10px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudmagazin.com\/en\/2026\/04\/13\/cloud-repatriation-2026-when-the-return-pays-off\/\" style=\"color:#1a1a1a;text-decoration:none;\">Cloud Repatriation 2026: The TCO Model<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:10px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudmagazin.com\/en\/2026\/04\/11\/platform-engineering-2026\/\" style=\"color:#1a1a1a;text-decoration:none;\">Platform Engineering 2026: Internal Developer Platforms<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>More from the MBF Media Network<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"list-style:none;margin:0 0 8px;padding:0;\">\n<li style=\"padding:10px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.securitytoday.de\/2026\/04\/13\/identity-sprawl-mittelstand-ad-cloud-setups-angriffsflaeche\/\" style=\"color:#1a1a1a;text-decoration:none;\">Identity Sprawl in the Mittelstand: Attack Surface in AD-plus-Cloud Setups<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:10px 0;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.digital-chiefs.de\/cloud-repatriation-2026-statistische-illusion-hybrid-architektur-cio\/\" style=\"color:#1a1a1a;text-decoration:none;\">Cloud Repatriation 2026 Is a Statistical Illusion<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;color:#868e96;font-size:0.85em;margin-top:48px;\"><em>Image source: AI-generated (November 2026)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AWS Interconnect connects AWS and Google Cloud for production use in Frankfurt.
