InterCloud offers dedicated connectivity to IBM Cloud

Customers including SNCF can benefit from end-to-end performance to access their IBM Cloud resources.

InterCloud, one of the European leaders in dedicated connectivity to the cloud, now offers direct access to the IBM Cloud through IBM Cloud Direct Link. This collaboration provides a high bandwidth, secured and resilient service that enables enterprise workloads to integrate seamlessly with the IBM Cloud, while helping to ensure application availability for customers.

 

Leveraging a dedicated connection, InterCloud now offers enterprise-grade private and seamless connectivity to strategic IBM Cloud services, ranging from bare metal infrastructure to high value Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning capabilities. This service will be available to customers globally, starting with Europe.

One of the first InterCloud customers benefiting from this collaboration is the French national railway company, Société des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF).
