Connecting to Google Cloud through phoenixNAP, customers can leverage network transfer speeds of either 10 Gbps or 100 Gbps. This dedicated high-speed network connection delivers greater reliability, consistency, and security compared to migrating data over a standard public Internet connection. As part of GCI, phoenixNAP helps customers reduce their data transfer costs to Google Cloud by eliminating the need to purchase additional bandwidth.

“Welcoming GCI into our Phoenix data center brings Google Cloud closer to our customers, which in turn opens the door for new possibilities and greater flexibility in building and delivering hybrid and multi-cloud environments,” said Ian McClarty, President of phoenixNAP.

“Network stability and speed play a critical role in ensuring businesses reap all the benefits of cloud computing. As more of them transition to the cloud over the public Internet, performance, security, and latency issues become apparent. However, by leveraging a dedicated physical network connection through GCI, our customers benefit from increased network stability, fast transfer speeds, and improved security when migrating data to Google Cloud.”
