Megaport is a Network as a Service (NaaS) that provides SD-WAN gateways, virtual routers, and integrated transit gateways. Megaport's global network allows you to create a private point-to-point network environment between any location or cloud service provider (CSP).

Features of Megaport

● Megaport (physical port)

A high-speed Ethernet interface (1Gbps / 10Gbps / 100Gbps) for connecting to the Megaport network allows you to easily connect to data centers and cloud services around the world using Megaport as a gateway.

● Virtual Cross Connect (VXC)

A virtual Ethernet line that instantly connects Megaport and cloud services such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI point-to-point. Use it as a backbone network for a corporate WAN or as a backup network to connect between Megaports.

summary

Companies expanding overseas often have different infrastructure and networks in each country and base.

However, by using Megaport, network connections between different clouds, which was difficult until now, are now easier. For example, it is now possible to connect networks and data between clouds that are used at a base in Japan and another at an overseas base. You will be able to do it.
