telecommunications, communication service providers (CSPs), and large enterprises face the challenge of managing global workloads distributed across various data centers, private clouds, and public cloud environments. These workloads often rely on disparate protocols that hinder seamless interoperability, resulting in operational inefficiencies.
In collaboration with Red Hat, Arrcus brings a cloud-native approach, leveraging containerized and virtualized solutions, to help businesses adapt to the demands of the digital era. The centerpiece of this collaboration is the Arrcus multi-cloud networking platform, known as FlexMCN built on Arrcus’ ACE platform, which offers unmatched scalability, hyperscale performance, and cloud-native security for interconnecting enterprise data centers with cloud regions worldwide, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity.
FlexMCN is tailored for service providers, colocation providers, and telcos, enabling them to extend their on-premise networks to multicloud environments seamlessly. This solution is readily available on major public clouds, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud platform. FlexMCN stands out as a premier multicloud solution supporting multitenancy, allowing cloud infrastructure sharing with partners and network segmentation with consistent policies.
Deploying and managing ArcEdge virtual routers across virtual private clouds (VPCs) and virtual networks (VNETs) in any region and cloud environment is simplified through the intuitive ArcOrchestrator console. Service providers can effortlessly deploy, connect, and secure numerous ArcEdges at scale, offering hub-spoke, full-mesh, or hybrid connectivity options. Furthermore, it simplifies cloud migration across multicloud environments with support for private and overlapping IP addresses along with network address translation.
