The new L3VPN multipoint service option for Interconnection Mesh connects all customer environments over a Flexential routed connection, enabling highly secure encrypted connections. It solves for complexities of layer 2 transport connectivity, a challenge to achieving large-scale deployments. L3VPN assists customers in scaling their routing infrastructure with Flexential serving as a bridge between sites, removing the need for customers to orchestrate their own direct connections or incur the expense of hiring additional network engineering staff.

“Customers increasingly turn toward hybrid deployments, including public and private clouds, which often connect very different networking technologies. The expansion of Interconnection Mesh to include a layer 3 transport option helps to mitigate challenges when connecting different workloads in a controlled, scalable way,” said Ryan Mallory, COO, Flexential. “We’re pleased to continue investing in our FlexAnywhere platform and our Interconnection portfolio to bring enhancements and new capabilities that are crucial to our customers’ continued success.”
