Hybrid, Single, and Multi-Cloud Network

Connect to the cloud, within the cloud, and between clouds in minutes, not months.

Companies that migrate data from a data center or on-prem to the cloud must overcome considerable challenges in connecting multiple clouds together. Some primary concerns include maintaining network visibility, governance, and security. Alkira simplifies all of this by reducing the need for point solutions and unifying the network to give customers an end-to-end solution that is easier to manage and secure.

Hybrid, Single, and Multi-Cloud Network

Alkira enables customers to connect anything to anything. This includes their network to the cloud, within, and between clouds. Likewise, customers can connect branch offices together. AI-based applications no longer need to be constrained by data gravity or limited to a single cloud provider’s toolset.

Alkira enables customers to network their data and LLMs, regardless of being on-prem or in multiple clouds. In addition, Alkira provides deep insights into all network and security constructs. On average, Alkira customers realize a 40% reduction in cost and an 80% reduction in network provisioning time.

Solution Highlights

Easy Cloud Networking

Alkira enables cloud networking across multiple regions and multiple clouds with advanced network controls – without a need for deep cloud expertise, and without restrictive cloud limits.

Single Pane of Glass

By applying a single pane of glass visibility across the entire network, companies can consolidate and integrate their network and security, saving considerable time and money.

Agile Networking

Alkira is offered as-a-service and can be consumed on-demand, aligning with the cloud consumption model. This approach allows networks to remain agile like cloud-based functions for compute and storage.

OPEX vs CAPEX

No CAPEX hardware investments are needed because Alkira Cloud Exchange Points (CXPs) provide on-demand global connectivity between all users, sites, and clouds. Users can get full transparency to view their past and present spending on network connectivity, and to monitor network services such as firewalls. In this way, network teams can identify spending trends and make business-savvy decisions by leveraging their existing investments in WAN, SD-WAN, IPSec, and VPN – easily integrating all of them into a single network.

Use Cases

Migrating to the Cloud

Alkira customers average a 96% decrease in time required to add a new cloud environment. Since it is delivered as-a-service and there’s no hardware to buy and no software to install, Alkira allows organizations to deloy their network in a similar fashion as they do cloud computing and storage. Alkira supports customers looking to connect to a single cloud, hybrid environments, multiple regions, and even multiple cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Multicloud Connectivity

Alkira customers average an 84% reduction in time it takes to add a new cloud environment to their network. This is important because AI-based applications are no longer constrained by data gravity or limited to a single cloud provider’s toolset. Alkira enables customers to network their data and LLMs, regardless of being on-prem or in multiple clouds.

Hybrid Cloud Connectivity

Traditionally, maintaining on-prem data centers and cloud environments meant managing separate networks with some type of connection in-between. That just adds complexity and overhead, with little to no value. Alkira customer can add a new data center to their hybrid cloud in 93% less time and manage the entire network through a single user interface.
