In today’s digital economy, organizations are increasingly transforming their business models and expanding into new markets to remain competitive. Securing interconnectivity around the world is critical in achieving business goals. However, for the uninitiated or inexperienced, the process of procuring direct connectivity to different locations globally can be an arduous and complicated task.
Many business needs can be best met by remote peering solutions. It is not only a cost-effective solution, but it also provides low-latency and high-performance connectivity for optimized user experience by ensuring direct access to an ecosystem of partners via the fastest route.
For organizations to remain agile, their connectivity solution should be scalable, flexible, and easy to deploy. They require an integrated platform to provision and monitor their connectivity seamlessly – and this can be achieved with Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platforms that enable customers to buy global connectivity on-demand.
