Cloud Connect
Private paths to hyperscalers
Our Cloud Connect solution offers a reliable L2/L3 interconnect option with predictable latency and guaranteed SLAs. With a focus on redundancy and multi-region availability, we offer a standardized contract and a central portal. Our 24/7 Network Operations Center (NOC) is available to you at all times. Optionally, we integrate Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) to make your infrastructure even more flexible and scalable.

What you can expect
At a time when digital transformation and cloud computing are business-critical, our solution enables reliable and efficient integration of your IT infrastructure into the cloud. Cloud Connect provides predictable, powerful connections to leading hyperscalers, with guaranteed performance, security and scalability.
-
Connectivity options
Layer 2 and Layer 3 are available and provide a robust infrastructure for IT requirements. By using these technologies, we ensure reliable and efficient data transmission that maximizes both the security and speed of your networks.
-
Redundancy and regions
Dual-port and geo-redundant endpoints ensure the availability of your infrastructure. This innovative architecture not only enables uninterrupted operation, but also actively protects against outages through parallel data streams across geographically separated locations. Thanks to the modular structure, additional regions can be flexibly and gradually integrated so that your network architecture remains scalable and adaptable at all times.

Optional NFV Pod with virtual edge functions
With the optional NFV Pod Add-On, RIEDEL Networks' Cloud Connect extends the connection with virtual network functions directly at the cloud connection. Depending on requirements, we provide a virtual SD WAN appliance, a virtual firewall or a virtual router there. This brings security and routing closer to the cloud targets without having to operate your own hardware or VM.
Cloud Connect fits into existing architectures and can be combined with other services if required.

Technology in detail
Direct connection to the cloud:
Cloud Connect enables predictable, dedicated connections to public cloud offerings such as IaaS and SaaS. Applications benefit from low latency, stable performance and clearly separated traffic paths.
Flexible scaling:
Bandwidths and regions can be expanded on a project-specific and growth-oriented basis, entirely without interfering with the existing infrastructure.
Managed service:
RIEDEL Networks provides Cloud Connect as a fully managed service. The Network Operations Center monitors quality and availability around the clock.
Stable cloud access:
Continuous monitoring ensures that access to the cloud remains fast, stable and controllable in the long term.
Network
Underlay for stable connectivity
RIEDEL Networks offers reliable and predictable connectivity via our Internet Access, MPLS, Ethernet and Cloud Connect. Individually combinable and operated via our own backbone with more than 40 POPs worldwide. Our services are redundant, SLA-supported and monitored around the clock by our 24/7 NOC. We optionally integrate DDoS mitigation for additional protection at network level, for stable connections, globally available and tailored precisely to your requirements.
Private paths to leading cloud providers
With coordinated setup and scalable reach
The RIEDEL Networks Cloud Connect Service enables secure, private connections to leading cloud platforms and bundles multiple virtual connections via a single access point. This shortens the path to IaaS and SaaS services, minimizes latency times and fluctuations, and keeps data streams cleanly separated. The result: consistent service quality for business-critical applications, noticeably faster response times and stable network performance - even under high load. For extended requirements, Cloud Connect Services can be supplemented with NFV Pod as an add-on. RIEDEL Networks provides virtual SD-WAN, firewall or router functions directly on the cloud connection. The environment remains hardware-free and is offered by RIEDEL Networks as a managed service.
