Hi All,
We have an on-premise DC, ADFS, and DC sync with Office 365 for email. We have an Exchange 2010 server, which was our mail server. Due to EOL and free Exchange 2016 License, Trying to set up a new Exchange 2016 in our AWS. we have few DC's and ADFS servers in AWS too. So I have a few questions to clarify.
1. Can I run the HCW in AWS Server and Licence the Exchange? will the AWS license model support it?
2. We need this exchange 2016 server for SMTP relay for our on-premise devices ( Printers, UPS, applications) So setting up Exchange in AWS is causes any issues?

You can run Exchange 2016 on AWS as per - https://aws.amazon.com/quickstart/architecture/exchange/ - so running a Hybrid server within AWS I don't imagine will be a problem.

@PeterRising Our Exchange 2010 is not on Software Assurance?
Can I bring in my own licenses for use on AWS?
Yes. We have many customers that have successfully brought in and deployed licenses on Amazon EC2. These deployments include, but are not limited to, Exchange, SharePoint, Skype for Business, Remote Desktop Services, Office, Dynamics products, BizTalk, and System Center.
Customers can choose to use shared EC2 instances and utilize License Mobility or they can purchase EC2 Dedicated Hosts and utilize physically dedicated hardware.
