IAA Cloud Connect
IAA Cloud Connect enables IAA Members to establish private, Layer-2 connectivity to major public cloud platforms, delivered over Member ports via IAA’s national interconnection infrastructure.
Cloud Connect services are provisioned as VLAN-based Layer-2 connections and can be delivered over existing capacity or dedicated ports, allowing Members to manage performance and scale services as required.
Members may use Cloud Connect for their own workloads or offer it as a value-add service to customers.
