CULVER CITY, Calif., April 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- PacketFabric, the leading provider of on-demand connectivity for the enterprise cloud core, today announced that it has released the industry's first cloud router solution supporting 100Gbps multi-cloud connectivity.

PacketFabric Cloud Router now supports touchless cloud interconnection at speeds from 50Mbps to 100Gbps. Today, customers can provision 100Gbps connections for AWS and Google Cloud, and Cloud Router is 100G-ready for other cloud service providers.

"Data is power for the modern business. And the key to unlocking the power of data is the ability to move it when and where the business needs to provide the most value," said PacketFabric SVP of Product and Engineering Anna Claiborne. "Moving data at low speeds between cloud providers just won't cut it anymore. With 100Gbps support, Cloud Router is the highest velocity, easiest to use, and most economic solution for multi-cloud data motion at scale."

Enterprises are increasingly utilizing multi-cloud architectures to drive mission-critical workflows and deliver customer and employee digital experiences. According to the Flexera 2021 State of the Cloud Report, enterprises have almost entirely embraced multi-cloud, with 92 percent of survey respondents reporting adoption of a multi-cloud or hybrid cloud strategy. Enterprises also reported steady growth of multi-cloud spending, yet shifting use cases for how they deploy across multiple public cloud providers.

PacketFabric Cloud Router utilizes a distributed, edge-based architecture that delivers consistent performance at any subscribed bandwidth. Cloud Router creates direct connections between public clouds, which eliminates the waste and security risks associated with suboptimal network architectures, Internet unpredictability, backhauling of large data sets through data centers, or hairpinning through centralized choke points.

Cloud Router offers a predictable pricing model based on bandwidth level, delivering up to a 40% reduction in cost versus usage-based cloud egress charges.
