Cloud connectivity - Overview

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way businesses operate, enabling access to scalable computing resources and services on-demand. However, as organizations increasingly adopt cloud-based solutions, they face the challenge of connecting and integrating these disparate cloud environments.
Cloud Connect services provided by Evolution Platform aim at simplifying the access to cloud leaders (Azure, AWS, GCP…) by leveraging the capacities of Orange backbone SDN POPs.

Enabling Secure and Scalable Connections Across the Cloud​

With our new Evolution Platform, you wille be able to connect to the leading Cloud providers (Azure, AWS, GCP …) anywhere in the world, from your Orange network, through a 100% digital journey (Console and APIs), in total autonomy (Do-It-Yourself approach).

There are several ways for you to manage your Cloud Connectors. You can either use our Evolution Platform console, which is a web interface that provides a step-by-step guided journey or use the Orange APIs. The second option is more suitable when you prefer not to use the web interface, or when you prefer to use your own internal tools, own scripts or automated scripts to manage configuration via our APIs.

You have the freedom to create and modify, on demand, in real time, with total autonomy, your connectors to the cloud. You have the choice to provision your connector by using a Public connection via Internet (IPsec) or a Private one (MPLS) with a physical link (Fiber Orange Business). Depending on architecture you can use either standard architecture, or high availability. Because it uses redundant POPs, high availability offers a more secure service for business-critical applications.
