Megaport Limited announced the expanded availability of Oracle FastConnect onramps to allow customers to easily and flexibly interconnect to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Megaport now offers direct connectivity to Oracle Cloud regions across four continents. Recently enabled FastConnect locations enabled across the Megaport network include Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Melbourne, Zurich, Osaka, and San Jose. There are now 17 FastConnect onramps enabled via Megaport, providing greater choice for how businesses architect their cloud for performance, availability, and in-country data sovereignty requirements. Customers connecting to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure through Megaport can also take advantage of Megaport Cloud Router (MCR), a virtual routing service. MCR removes complexity by allowing customers to connect and route traffic without the need for physical routers and supports Oracle's fast enablement of new cloud regions by providing rapid, reliable connectivity to the applications and platforms that power businesses every day. MCR also allows customers to build cloud to cloud connections in a point and click manner and in real time. This means more organizations can take advantage of multi-cloud architectures. With Megaport, organizations have the choice of connecting their services and applications from 15 Oracle Cloud regions to 30+ Azure Cloud regions and 16+ AWS regions. This extended reach taps into the multi-cloud strategy many enterprises prefer as they increase cloud adoption.
