Customers can now streamline the purchase and management of AWS Direct Connect and private connectivity from within AWS Marketplace.
When I speak with enterprise customers about their cloud roadmap, they typically share the same vision: A true high-performance multicloud environment utilizing best-of-breed services from each cloud provider, with seamlessly tied-together cross-cloud data flows, all supporting high performance applications – and, of course, the end user experience that people have not only come to expect, but demand.
But more often than not, this vision is impeded by reality. Despite using best-of-breed services, application performance in a distributed, multi-vendor environment is only as good as the underlying connectivity.
Multicloud connectivity can be challenging, and despite the network being exceedingly important to the end-user experience, it is often under-prioritized. Companies that use internet VPNs quickly run themselves into an unreliable mess of tunnels between environments, causing run-on impacts on performance, network management, and troubleshooting.
Companies that attempt a move to private connectivity with traditional networking options find that static connections, with term commitments , are too inflexible in a constantly evolving multicloud environment.
Most often, this leads to over-provisioning and unnecessary spend on connections that either don’t get enough use, or none at all in the event of a cloud strategy shift.
Megaport’s solutions are a direct response to the clear need for an easier, more flexible cloud connectivity solution. When used with AWS, they enrich your network with new features and capabilities.
Each connection to and between cloud services over Megaport’s private network uses AWS Direct Connect solutions and similar offerings from other cloud service providers. AWS Direct Connect is a networking service that provides an alternative to using the internet to connect to AWS.
Using AWS Direct Connect, data that would have previously been transported to or from the cloud over the internet is delivered through a private network connection. Utilizing private connectivity offerings improves performance and can reduce cost, especially in multicloud environments where data migrations or steady-state, cross-cloud data flows are common.
I’m excited to share that Megaport is the first AWS Direct Connect network service offering on AWS Marketplace. This makes it even easier for AWS customers to implement our cloud connectivity solutions and remove transaction friction, streamline procurement, and consolidate billing.
You can create your custom network designs in consultation with our solutions team and consume it as a private offer directly from AWS Marketplace. As a leading AWS Direct Connect Delivery and Outpost Service Ready partner, our solutions team has specialized expertise to solve complex hybrid and multicloud connectivity challenges.
On deployment you’ll gain access to the entire Megaport platform, which is designed to simplify complex connectivity challenges with built-in automation. It’s global, scalable, secure, and simple.
