Verizon Launches MPLS-based Direct Connect to AWS

Verizon Enterprise Solutions added Amazon Web Services (AWS) to its growing list of cloud services accessible via its Secure Cloud Interconnect (SCI) service, which runs over Verizon’s MPLS-based Private IP network.

SCI with AWS Direct Connect is available immediately in Northern Virginia and Silicon Valley. London and three Asia-Pacific locations (Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo) are planned for late October.

Verizon SCI lets customers manage a multi-cloud environment with dynamic bandwidth allocation, application performance throughput, quality of service and usage-based billing.
