Epsilon provides its Network and Communication Service Provider partners with on-demand dedicated access to Alibaba Cloud via Express Connect

Singapore, 26 September 2018 – Epsilon, a privately-owned global communications service provider, has joined the Alibaba Cloud Partner Network to deliver on-demand private connectivity to one of the world’s fastest growing Cloud platforms. Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing arm of the Alibaba Group, is connected to the Infiny by Epsilon on-demand connectivity platform across multiple data centre locations in Asia, Europe and North America.

Epsilon’s partners gain a direct link into the world’s largest Cloud ecosystems. With the click-of-a-button, they can directly interconnect with leading service Cloud service providers including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform and now Alibaba Cloud.

Leased line connections established via Express Connect allows Epsilon customers to activate high-speed, dedicated connectivity to guarantee the stability and reliability of communications and services activated within the platform. It also offers a strong level of security as all data is transmitted via private infrastructure, with no risk of being exposed to the Internet.

Alibaba Cloud is a massive player in Asia and has one of the fastest growing public cloud platforms in the world. Our partnership means that we are able to continuously expand our ecosystem of cloud providers in Infiny, while supporting the rapid adoption of Cloud locally, regionally and across the globe. We are truly providing a platform that reduces the procurement and management of global connectivity and private cloud access from a single source.
