Amazon VPC IPAM automates IP assignments from Infoblox IPAM

Today, AWS launched the ability for Amazon VPC IP Address Manager (IPAM) to automatically acquire non-overlapping IP address allocations from Infoblox Universal IPAM. This feature minimizes manual processes between cloud and on-premises administrators, reducing the turnaround time.

With this launch, you can automatically acquire non-overlapping IP addresses from your on-premises Infoblox Universal IPAM into your top-level AWS IPAM pool and organize them into regional pools based on your business requirements. When you acquire non-overlapping IPs, you reduce the risk of service disruptions because your IPs don’t conflict with on-premise IP addresses. Previously, in hybrid cloud environments, administrators had to use offline means such as tickets or emails to request and allocate IP addresses, which was often error-prone and time-consuming. This integration automates the manual process, improving operational efficiency.

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon VPC IPAM is supported, excluding AWS China Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
