EDORA CLOUD · CLOUD CONNECT

The European network behind Edora Cloud

Cloud Connect is Edora's redundant, optical N×100G backbone. It connects Edora Cloud, our datacentre locations and directly attached customer and partner environments, so traffic between connected locations can be transported without public internet transit. Forthcoming renewable datacentres attach to the same distributed network infrastructure.

ONE INFRASTRUCTURE

One network across Edora's locations and your own

Cloud Connect ties Edora’s cloud and datacentre infrastructure together through a shared optical backbone.

Relevant customer and partner environments can be connected directly to the same infrastructure.

That gives you a controlled transport path between the attached locations, and makes the network an integrated part of the solution rather than a separate connection between each individual environment.

USE CASES

Three functions Cloud Connect supports

Geographic redundancy

Connect workloads and data across several locations, so the overall solution can be designed with less dependency on any single site.

The actual redundancy achieved depends on the locations, connections and operational requirements you choose.

Backup and disaster recovery

Transport backups and replicated data between your environments and Edora Cloud over the closed network.

Backup frequency, data placement, recovery time and replication are set out in the specific architecture.

Connectivity to existing environments

Connect your own datacentre, an EU Cloud in a Box installation or a partner environment directly to Edora Cloud through a controlled network link.

TECHNICAL FOUNDATION

Built for stable transport between multiple locations

Edora dimensions, establishes, monitors and operates the network foundation as part of the overall solution.

Redundant optical capacity

Redundant optical capacity

Cloud Connect is built with redundant N×100G capacity on optical links. Capacity is dimensioned to the connected environments and can be expanded as the infrastructure grows.

Distributed routing

Distributed routing

EVPN/BGP distributes routing across the network. No location depends on a single central routing point, and traffic can be rerouted automatically over the established redundancy in the event of a failure.

Internal traffic bypasses the public internet

Internal traffic bypasses the public internet

Traffic between directly attached locations is transported through Cloud Connect. Internet access is handled separately and is not part of the transport path between the connected environments.

Get clarity on the links between your locations

A technical review starts from your locations, data flows and requirements for capacity and redundancy. We outline how existing environments can be connected to Edora Cloud, and which dependencies need to be addressed in the overall network architecture.
