Today, as part of the launch of the AWS Asia Pacific (New Zealand) Region, AWS announced the opening of a new AWS Direct Connect location within the Spark Digital Mayoral Drive Exchange (MDR) data center near Auckland, New Zealand. You can now establish private, direct network access to all public AWS Regions (except those in China), AWS GovCloud Regions, and AWS Local Zones from this location. This Direct Connect location offers dedicated 10 Gbps and 100 Gbps connections with MACsec encryption available.
The Direct Connect service enables you to establish a private, physical network connection between AWS and your data center, office, or colocation environment. These private connections can provide a more consistent network experience than those made over the public internet.
For more information on the over 144 Direct Connect locations worldwide, visit the locations section of the Direct Connect product detail pages. Or, visit our getting started page to learn more about how to purchase and deploy Direct Connect.
