Dedicated Network Connection (Direct Connect)

Definition

  • Dedicated Network Connection (Direct Connect) is a private, high-bandwidth network link that connects your on-premises data center directly to the cloud, bypassing the public internet.
  • You can establish stable, low-latency connections between your enterprise network and cloud resources for consistent performance.
  • You can choose from a range of bandwidth options and connection types to match your enterprise traffic requirements.

Functions

  • You can configure Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing to establish dynamic, resilient connections between networks.
  • You can monitor real-time connection status, bandwidth utilization, and latency metrics directly via the cloud console.
  • If you require higher availability, dual-connection redundancy ensures automatic failover between physical links with zero manual intervention.

Application Scenarios

  • Hybrid Cloud Deployment: You can extend your on-premises infrastructure into the cloud while maintaining consistent network performance and security.
  • Large-Scale Data Migration: You can transfer massive datasets to the cloud quickly and securely without congesting your public internet bandwidth.
  • Disaster Recovery: You can maintain a dedicated, low-latency link to cloud-based backup and recovery sites for business continuity.
