Tata Communications today said that it has become a Google Cloud Platform Authorized Services Partner. Under the terms of this agreement, Google’s new service, Google Cloud Interconnect will connect with Tata Communications’ IZO Public, a cloud enablement service that provides a dedicated and deterministic route, for businesses, into Google’s cloud.
Through the IZO Public cloud enablement service, Tata Communications and Google will be collaborating to provide businesses with a simple and future-proof way to connect and build their cloud over the public Internet – providing unparalleled performance, reach, and capacity ensuring a consistently good user experience for enterprise end-customers.
The IZO Public cloud enablement service is part of Tata Communications’ IZO network platform for enhanced hybrid cloud enablement. The platform, launched last week, takes the public internet and uniquely engineers it for predictable routing, together with enterprise cloud connectivity and interconnected data centres, backed by company’s global network. Today, over 24% of the world’s Internet routes travel over Tata Communications’ network and the company is the only Tier-1 provider that is in the top five by routes in five continents.
With Google Cloud Interconnect connecting to the IZO Public cloud enablement service, Tata Communications continues to grow its IZO platform ecosystem – currently consisting of over 20 service providers covering countries accounting for 85% of the world’s GDP, three of the largest cloud platforms including Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform and over 50 data centres across the globe – the IZO network delivers the most comprehensive cloud enablement platform available today.
