FAQPage Schema
How do I configure hybrid cloud networking between on-premises data centers and AWS or Azure?

Configure hybrid cloud networking by selecting your cloud provider and provisioning a VPN, Direct Connect, or ExpressRoute connection to establish a secure link according to your network topology.

What is the best way to automate route failover for cross-premises BGP connections?

Automate BGP route failover by implementing high-availability multi-tunnel designs that use BGP-based route propagation to detect link failures and automatically redirect traffic across redundant tunnels.

Does this approach support multi-cloud connectivity across AWS, Azure, and GCP?

Yes, hybrid cloud networking supports multi-cloud connectivity by establishing secure links across AWS, Azure, and GCP using VPNs, dedicated connections, and private networking options.

When should I use ExpressRoute or Direct Connect instead of a standard VPN for cloud networking?

Use ExpressRoute or Direct Connect instead of a VPN when your scenario requires reliable, low-latency links and scalable bandwidth for data-center extensions, disaster recovery, or secure cross-premises data transfers.

Can I set up redundant tunnels for high availability in a hybrid cloud deployment?

Yes, you can set up high availability in hybrid cloud deployments by configuring redundant tunnels and leveraging BGP-based failover to ensure continuous, reliable cross-premises network connectivity.
