AWS launches AWS Interconnect – last mile, a fully managed connectivity offering that allows customers to connect their branch offices, data centers, and remote locations to AWS with just a few clicks, eliminating the friction and complexity of network setup. As a milestone collaboration between AWS and Lumen, AWS Interconnect – last mile combines AWS cloud innovation with Lumen’s extensive network footprint to redefine how businesses connect to the cloud.
Through the AWS Console, customers can now instantly establish private, high-speed connections to AWS by simply choosing their preferred AWS Region, bandwidth speed, Direct Connect Gateway ID and partner subscriber ID. Once initiated, AWS generates an activation key to complete provisioning with Lumen. The launch simplifies the connectivity experience by pre-provisioning capacity and automating complex network configuration including BGP peering, VLAN configuration, and ASN assignment. Customers can dynamically scale bandwidth from 1 Gbps to 100 Gbps through the AWS Console and benefit from zero down-time maintenance. The service is designed for high availability and backed by SLA. MACsec encryption is enabled by default for enhanced security between AWS and partner devices.
AWS Interconnect – last mile is available in the US through our launch partner Lumen. Partners can also easily adopt via a published open API package on GitHub. For more information, see the AWS Interconnect – last mile documentation and pricing pages.
