Megaport now provides direct, secure connectivity to IBM Cloud. Enterprises can now access high-speed, dedicated network connections to IBM Cloud from any of Megaport’s 179 data centres globally to help accelerate the transfer of business-critical data between private infrastructure and the cloud.

With IBM Cloud Direct Link, Megaport accelerates cloud adoption for the enterprise, enabling them to seamlessly architect a hybrid environment that connects on-premises infrastructure, private cloud, and public cloud services. Megaport customers can seamlessly access IBM Cloud's expanding global footprint and cloud-native services such as AI, analytics, blockchain, Internet of Things, serverless and more.

“IBM Cloud has a long and rich history within the enterprise space,” said Vincent English, Chief Executive Officer, Megaport. “Clients who want to build next-generation applications now have direct, scalable access to cloud infrastructure that is tuned for AI and big data. Our connectivity model bypasses the public internet and serves enterprises moving to the cloud while improving performance and network reliability to critical business applications. As a result, customers can optimise workloads and scale between on-premises infrastructure and the cloud.”

“Enterprises have moved well past using the cloud simply for cost-savings, and are now embracing higher value cloud-native services to create new business opportunities,” said Kit Linton, Vice President of Network, IBM Cloud. “Megaport is enabling direct connectivity to IBM Cloud Direct Link to provide a reliable way for global enterprises to expand their reach, drive innovation and embrace a cloud strategy that seamlessly connects public and private infrastructure."
