Provides physical Ethernet connections with port speeds ranging from 1 Gbps to 100 Gbps. These dedicated connections ensure high bandwidth and low latency for critical applications and workloads hosted on AWS, enabling a more predictable and consistent user experience.

By bypassing the public internet, AWS Direct Connect enables direct, private communication between your infrastructure and AWS. This reduces the risk of data interception, improves security, and minimizes latency, particularly for data-intensive applications.

Offers both dedicated and hosted connection types, enabling customers to select the most appropriate option for their needs. The service also supports Link Aggregation Groups (LAG), which allows for the aggregation of multiple connections to achieve higher bandwidth and network redundancy, ensuring continuous uptime.

Integrates seamlessly with your existing network infrastructure, facilitating a smooth transition and data flow between on-premises data centers, remote offices, and AWS environments. This integration ensures minimal disruption to operations and greater agility in managing workloads.

Supports AWS Direct Connect locations around the globe, giving you the flexibility to scale and deploy applications in multiple regions while maintaining a secure and reliable network connection. The service is ideal for enterprises looking to build hybrid cloud environments or expand their multi-cloud strategies.

Direct connections are inherently more secure than public internet-based connections, as they eliminate vulnerabilities associated with public networks. This is particularly crucial for sensitive workloads and data.
