Tech Vault Launches Direct Connect Service, Adds Megaport for Cloud Access

Tech Vault, a “green” and HIPAA, PCI DSS as well as SSAE-16 compliant colocation data center in the Northeast of the U.S., has launched a new service branded Tech Vault Direct Connect. Tech Vault is now also offering direct connectivity to leading public cloud providers via Megaport, a global Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) provider.

Tech Vault’s new service offering, Tech Vault Direct Connect, establishes a dedicated network link between a customer’s corporate office and the Tech Vault data center, and connects directly to the public cloud provider of choice via Megaport’s global software-defined network. Customers can either keep the link simple or create segmentation using VLANs and standard 802.1q trunking to maintain logical separation between public and private cloud resources.

“As IT stakeholders embrace public cloud to be part of their hybrid cloud strategies, they need high performing connectivity solutions that rapidly scale and reliably support the interoperation of cloud services,” said Eric Troyer, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Megaport.
