Public clouds offer economies of scale, shift capital expenses to operational expenses, provide elastic capacity, and keep infrastructure costs low for new projects and initiatives. However, if your organization is connecting to its cloud provider over the public Internet, it faces potential security risks, data loss, and unpredictable drops in network availability.

To make the most out of cloud computing, you need the performance, reliability, speed, and security that only private connectivity offers. Aligned enables secure, private, and cost-effective connectivity to leading Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure, Google Cloud Platform, IBM Cloud, Salesforce, and others from all of our data center locations in Ashburn, VA data center, Dallas, TX data center, Phoenix, AZ data center and Salt Lake City, UT data center.

Connections are offered at speeds starting at 1Gbps and can be provisioned instantaneously. Aligned’s Cloud Access delivers a flexible and transparent structure to align with your business needs.

Customers can also connect their infrastructure, even when it’s hosted in their own data centers, to and between all Aligned data centers and CSPs using our flexible, reliable Data Center Interconnect (DCI) virtual cross connect network connectivity solution.

Just like our Aligned Cloud Access, DCI connections are offered at speeds starting at 1Gbps and can be provisioned instantaneously. Aligned’s DCI Access features flexible and transparent month-to-month pricing backed by an industry-leading Service Level Agreement (SLA).
