Why multi-cloud happens
Teams choose different clouds for different strengths — a particular database, analytics tooling, pricing or regional presence. Mergers bring new cloud accounts. Before long, workloads in several clouds need to talk to each other and to on-premises systems.
The networking puzzle
Every cloud has its own private connectivity service and conventions. Connecting each cloud to each data center directly creates a mesh that grows quickly and becomes hard to manage.
Put a hub in the middle
With a Virtual Connectivity Hub, each cloud and each site connects once — to the hub. Traffic between any two of them passes through the hub over private paths. Adding a new cloud region means one new virtual circuit, not a new set of links to every site.
Add routing
Pair the hub with Peer1ix Cloud Router and the hub becomes a layer-3 exchange point for your own networks, learning and distributing routes between clouds and sites with BGP.
Benefits
- Predictable performance between clouds.
- Fewer physical connections to manage.
- Faster changes when projects begin or end.
- One place to monitor inter-cloud traffic.
