AppHUB™ | For Cloud & Application Delivery
Your High Performance Gateway to the Cloud.
Solving High-Performance Access. Accelerating App Performance.
As companies continue to move their mission-critical IT infrastructure and applications to external data centers and cloud service providers to more efficiently and effectively deliver applications on a global scale – many are finding they’re challenged to deliver the performance, reliability and scalability required for the cloud. Traditional enterprise WAN architectures are not well-suited for could-based infrastructure and SaaS solutions; and while the Internet provides ease of access to a broad base of users, it often falls short in supporting cloud-based enterprise solutions. CFN’s AppHUB helps solve for this challenge – simplifying direct and secure access while delivering the high performance required for distributed enterprise applications and cloud services.
AppHUB is a secure high-performance gateway simplifying direct access to cloud applications and services from any enterprise location, remote site or private data center – leveraging CFN’s globally distributed, lowest-latency network platform. AppHUB enables enterprises and their globally distributed user base to connect directly to cloud infrastructure through a single access hub from within their private data centers or from any data center or proximity location across CFN’s high-performance global footprint.
AppHUB Solution Overview
Direct and Secure Access
Simple Connection
A single connection to AppHUB may be all you need. It could be as simple as a single cross-connect within a neutral data center that you’re already in – or easily establish a dedicated connection from your enterprise locations to any AppHUB gateway worldwide.
Scalable On-Ramp
Simplify integration of third-party cloud solutions and internal applications through a dedicated scalable on-ramp into the cloud. Move large volumes of data in and out of the cloud faster with optimized access to cloud and enterprise resources.
Flexible Service Options
Flexible terms, pricing and install times. Fully managed AppHUB solutions can include provisioning access connectivity, installation and management of network devices, enhanced capacity and performance monitoring and reporting, and 24 x 7 operational monitoring.
Guaranteed High Performance
Ensure consistent and predictable performance for enterprise applications and cloud solutions for your distributed user base.
