HOW DOES CLOUD EXPRESS WORK?

Leverage the best network configuration with optimized Ethernet speed.

Connect to the cloud service provider or providers of your choice.

Outsource management and provisioning to the Glo Fiber Business team for added ease.

Make easy adjustments after installation — most can be completed in a matter of minutes.

A business’s need to move and utilize workloads constantly fluctuates depending on the changing demands of the organization.

Most businesses access the cloud with their internet service provider (ISP) and public internet connection. Even though the public internet is easy and inexpensive, it isn’t always reliable, secure or efficient to move your business data.

Greater security and low latency are achieved by moving off of the public Internet. Plus, partnering with Glo Fiber Business is far more cost and time efficient than a customer trying to directly connect to cloud service providers on their own.

Your best bet for your business is using a cloud direct connection, like Glo Fiber’s Cloud Express. With our cloud connectivity solution, you can establish a private, dedicated connection from your business to the cloud provider.

Cloud direct connections help get rid of network bottlenecks, giving you the speed and ease you need to keep your business running.

Currently, there is a huge industry shift in the migration towards cloud service providers. Now is the perfect time to offer our customers a secure direct connection that most of our competitors don’t have.

Glo Fiber’s cloud connect solution allows for a faster and more secure connection to provide the scalability and agility your business demands. With Cloud Express, enjoy a more reliable, safer way to work with the cloud hosting service providers you select.

Glo Fiber Business sets up and manages the services through Megaport, which saves your business time and money while reducing the risks involved when carrying cloud services over a DIA connection.

Your Glo Fiber Business Fiber Account Executive will work with you on your direct business cloud connection to develop the best network configuration and Ethernet speed.

Glo Fiber Business then works with Megaport’s software platform to get you connected to the cloud service provider, or providers, of your choice.

The Glo Fiber Business team does all the work and all the heavy lifting at a fraction of the cost it would take to set up on your own.

Once cloud connectivity services are installed, most changes can be completed in a matter of minutes. It’s that easy.

Glo Fiber’s partnership with Megaport allows your business to choose from over 300 cloud service providers. Instead of self-provisioning connections to the cloud, which takes more time and cost, you can get access in seconds, ensuring your business has the agility to stay competitive. With predictable costs for a direct connection, you can have greater control over what you spend for fast, reliable data transferring.

Using a Glo Fiber Business Ethernet connection to directly connect to cloud service providers removes traffic from the public Internet. What’s more, we can configure your direct connections based on your network and operating systems, including E-Line, E-Lan, and E-Tree.

Megaport is a global leader in the fast-growing elastic interconnection services market with a goal to connect everyone to everything.
