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 is a fully meshed networking fabric within the biggest cloud providers and all geographic regions. Alkira is not a standard orchestration mechanism or software/service that you install inside your cloud tenant or on-prem.
Alkira’s platform provides instantaneous access to all networking services, including a global IP backbone, multiple clouds, Extranet-as-a-Service, network and security integration, and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA).
Solution Highlights
Alkira is the only platform that provides global network infrastructure-as-a-service to connect geographically dispersed users and applications across cloud, data center, and WAN environments without deploying any physical infrastructure, agents, complex overlays, or configurations. Alkira allows you to draw your entire network on an intuitive digital design canvas and deploy it within a single click.
Alkira customers realize a 40% reduction in cost and an 80% reduction in network provisioning time.
Use Cases
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.
