ABOUT AWS DIRECT CONNECT
Leveraging the Amazon Web Services “AWS” Direct Connect service Data Confiance customers can now connect directly to Amazon Web Services via a single cross connect from the Data Confiance data center facility.
Data Confiance customers using the AWS Direct Connect service can connect their infrastructure within the data center directly into the AWS cloud to access the numerous public and private compute services offered there. Subscribers may access service in a flexible array of speeds from 10M up to 500M and with our Data Confiance AWS Direct Connect High Capacity product you can soar to new heights with access to speeds of 1Gig and 10Gig. With AWS Direct Connect through Data Confiance, customers bypass traditional IP connections while ensuring a low latency, highly resilient always on connection to the Amazon Web Services cloud.
HOW DO I KNOW IF AMAZON WEB SERVICES ARE RIGHT FOR ME?
Just as there are myriad types of customers, technology use cases differ from business to business. Below you will find examples of how real customers use these service-based technologies in a Telx setting:
- A customer in a Data Confiance data center facility in New York is developing a new application for deployment within their organization. During the development phase the customer needs to manage costs until the new application has been tested and approved for wide spread usage. Using the Data Confiance AWS Direct Connect service the customer can access elastic compute services in the cloud during development and testing without having to incur the expense of purchasing and installing new infrastructure needed during the development process.
- A customer in a Data Confiance San Francisco area data center has the need to regularly transfer large data sets to and from their network. Rather than turn up additional bandwidth over a traditional IP connection the customer uses the AWS Direct connect service through Data Confiance to bypass their IP connection and satisfy their Big Data needs directly into and out of the AWS Cloud.
