    Hello Luca82,

    Yes, VMware/vSphere has strong integration with AWS via VMware Cloud SDDC and VMware Cloud Foundation, which can of course incorporate vSAN into their designs.

    vCF overview:

    vSAN vCloud general:

    If you would like to explore more detailed examples of SDDC solutions I would advise starting with taking a look through the current (4.2) SDDC Validated Design materials:

    There is also a HOL lab for test-driving such environments:
