Posted by Gurugram: Lightstorm, a provider of Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform Polarin and Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) member, has said that it will offer connectivity to Oracle Cloud via FastConnect in India.
Customers will get access through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) FastConnect within Oracle’s GPX and Sify data centres, in the Mumbai region and Oracle’s Sify data centre in Hyderabad.
Oracle customers can access and leverage Oracle Cloud locally, including Oracle Autonomous Database with Lightstorm providing access via FastConnect.
The NaaS platform Polarin helps enterprises to consume instantaneous network services with complete transparency, enabling them to access and utilize them on-demand as they would consume any other cloud service.
This is done by eliminating the cumbersome process of months of network setup and multiple partner onboardings, thereby allowing faster go-to-market (GTM) execution.
With OCI, customers benefit from top security, consistent high performance, simple predictable pricing, and the tools and expertise needed to bring enterprise workloads to the cloud quickly and efficiently.
“Customers require seamless connectivity from their data centers and networks to Oracle Cloud for their most demanding workloads and applications,” said Amajit Gupta, Group CEO and MD of Lightstorm.
“With the FastConnect service powered by Polarin, customers can provision the dedicated and private connections they need today and easily scale with their growing business demands,” added Gupta
OCI’s extensive network of more than 70 FastConnect global and regional partners offers customers dedicated connectivity to Oracle Cloud regions and OCI services, providing customers with the best options anywhere in the world.
