AWS Direct Connect is a native AWS Service that enables you to establish a dedicated private network connection from designated AWS Direct Connect point-of- presence (POP) to AWS. It provides increased bandwidth throughput, more consistent network pertormance, higher security and reduced overall cost (i.e. using Direct Connect to transfer huge amount of data between on-premises systems and AWS can yield significant cost benefits.) than the Internet-Based connection options; and can scale up to as high as 10Gbps or multiple of 10Gbps bandwidth. 1CLOUDSTAR’s CloudConnect Service for AWS is an enterprise-grade solution that seamless integrates AWS’s Direct Connect service with other key ingredients, such as domestic or international private circuits, datacentre colocations service, managed routers / firewalls, and 24×7 around the clock monitoring and support, and provides our customers a truly end-to-end one-stop managed solution to connect any number of its physical sites (such as offices, production facilities, and datacentres) to AWS with any preferred network throughput (from 10mbps up to 10Gbps), resiliency, network topology (i.e. point-to-point, multipoint etc.) and underlying connectivity technologies (i.e. layer 2, layer 3, MPLS, SDWAN etc.) By working with 1CLOUDSTAR, you will be working with one of the pioneer AWS Direct Connect partners in Singapore with years of experience behind the team. With our broad range of customers in many different industries and sectors like FSI, government, education, aviation, transportation, logistics, manufacturing, property, retail and e-commerce, our team can always deliver a connectivity solution that is customized tailored to meet your Cloud Connectivity needs and budget.
