DALLAS, Nov. 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T today
announced that it is integrating AT&T NetBond® with the AWS
Direct Connect (DX) bundle to offer highly secure access to Infor
and Pegasystems, two leading application and Software-as-a-Service
(SaaS) providers.
The SaaS architecture enhanced by the AT&T NetBond AWS DX
bundle is part of a set of advanced hybrid reference architectures
that simplify network management and boost performance. This helps
AWS SaaS partners quickly and easily move customers to the cloud in
a scalable and highly secure manner using the AT&T MPLS
network.
AT&T NetBond creates a highly secure connection to AWS SaaS
providers using a customer's AT&T Virtual Private Network. This
allows users to bypass the public internet, enhancing reliability
and performance.
"We help businesses get added value out of the cloud and
software services they already use through our leading network.
It's the foundation for all of our integrated cloud solutions,"
says Mo Katibeh, senior vice
president, Advanced Solutions, AT&T Business Solutions. "As a
result, the network's performance and scale provides highly-secure
access to key, cloud-based applications from nearly anywhere and at
any time."
As part of the AWS Direct Connect program, AWS Partner Network
(APN) and SaaS technology Partners Infor and Pegasystems will
become a part of the AT&T NetBond ecosystem. AT&T NetBond
is now active in seven domestic and global AWS Direct Connect
regions including: Northern CA, Northern VA, Oregon, Ireland, Frankfurt, Singapore, and Sydney.
"AT&T NetBond provides a fast and reliable connection to the
Infor Cloud environment," said Brian
Rose, senior vice president, Infor Labs. "AT&T
NetBond lets us integrate seamlessly and securely with our
customers' networks. Further, it simplifies network management for
an optimized customer experience."
"AWS-powered Pega® Cloud enables enterprises to provide their
customers with exceptional experiences at every stage of the buying
cycle – from marketing to sales to customer service," said
Mike Pyle, senior vice president,
engineering and product development, Pegasystems. "AWS' integration
with AT&T NetBond gives these businesses a new path to connect
to our customer engagement software in a highly-secure and reliable
way."

Network to connect directly to leading cloud providers. No
additional equipment or access lines required.

security risks.
