The partnership enables reliable access to a public network environment with virtually no risk of noticeable interruptions or security problems for all cloud environments including Alibaba, AWS, Azure, Google, Oracle, OVH, SAP and IBM. Through the partnership, InterCloud customers will be able to access their clouds (180+ destinations) with the company’s Software-defined Cloud Connectivity platform, integrated with SCION Internet - the most secure and reliable open inter-domain routing protocol designed from inception to provide full control to the owner of the information.
Leading cloud connectivity provider InterCloud has joined forces with SCION provider Anapaya Systems. The partnership will provide businesses with a more secure way to connect to their cloud environments in a path-aware, highly available, performant and secure way via SCION (Scalability, Control, and Isolation on Next-Generation Networks) technology - a new B2B-oriented internet. It is the most secure and reliable open inter-domain routing protocol, which was designed from inception to provide full control to the owner of the information.
An estimated 85% of organizations will embrace a cloud-first principle by 2025, according to Gartner, however secure connectivity remains one of the biggest challenges for adoption, especially in a public networking environment. SCION connections offer some of the most trustworthy security measures available today. Through this latest partnership, InterCloud customers will be able to access their cloud services with the company’s Software-defined Cloud Connectivity platform through SCION.
Jérôme Dilouya, Cofounder and CEO of InterCloud comments: “Secure connectivity to the cloud is business-critical, especially with the accelerated pace of digital transformation leading to more workloads hosted across multiple cloud providers. By working with Anapaya, we’re proud to give our customers access to their cloud environments with SCION - the latest networking innovation that combines the security and reliability of private networks with the flexibility of the Internet.”
Despite its flexibility and openness, the legacy Internet can not be trusted to guarantee enterprise-class security, performance, or control. SCION provides a solution as a new, state-of-the-art technology developed at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. With Anapaya's solutions, SCION can be used to transport critical business data securely and efficiently via the Internet, with the reliability and flexibility of a private network.
Martin Bosshardt, CEO of Anapaya Systems concludes: “Companies who invest large amounts of capital into cloud-reliant assets need to have security and reliability guarantees while staying in a public network environment. SCION is the only connectivity solution positioned to do this and has been designed to solve the root causes of the Internet’s security problems. Our partnership with leading cloud connectivity provider InterCloud will make connecting to the cloud more secure for businesses around the world.”
By using the SCION-Internet, organizations can increase their business continuity and global performance – enabling reliable access to a public network environment with virtually no risk of noticeable interruptions or security problems for all cloud environments including Alibaba, AWS, Azure, Google, Oracle, OVH, SAP and IBM.
