AppHub
Why Apcela
Data Centers in the Cloud
At the center of Apcela’s solution is our proprietary AppHub, a virtual data center in the cloud. Instead of having one or two premise-based data centers per region, we manage a dynamic, global footprint of over 80 AppHubs around the world. Instead of taking months or years to build out, we can stand-up a customer in days. AppHubs provide the framework that enables us to deliver a software-defined, cloud optimized network.
Full Application Delivery Stack
AppHubs provide a complete application delivery stack in the cloud. Starting with core switching, routing, and load balancing, we customize AppHubs to meet enterprise needs. This includes layering in SD-WAN from providers like Cisco, VeloCloud or Meraki; lifting and shifting a security solution such as Palo Alto to the cloud; and enabling edge compute and storage with a hyper-converged, private cloud.

Cloud Connected
AppHubs are located at carrier neutral cloud exchanges around the world. This enables a customer to leverage the peering, direct connect, and location benefits of being in the same exchanges as major SaaS and IaaS services like Office 365, AWS, Salesforce, or Google Cloud without establishing their own physical connections. Essentially, the AppHub does the heavy lifting, or rather ’connecting,’ for you.
On-Ramp to Speed and Performance
The AppHub serves as the entry and exit ramp for Apcela’s low-latency, global backbone. This highly meshed network creates high speed express lanes between data centers, branch offices, remote users, applications and the cloud. Integrated with the backbone, AppHubs help transform the enterprise WAN from a centralized and siloed IT architecture to a next-generation, cloud optimized network.
Why Apcela
A Software-Defined Network
Why Apcela
Next-generation networks begin with SD-WAN technologies. We manage an array of devices including Cisco and Aruba/HPE to help customers leverage all of the incredible benefits that SD-WAN has to offer.
One of the benefits of an SD-WAN overlay provided by Apcela, is that it enables an enterprise to deploy their WAN over any connection, MPLS, Internet, LTE. As a result, we can quickly and efficiently connect data centers, branch offices, and remote users to often dramatically reduce network costs.
Why Apcela
A Global Backbone that Hums
Why Apcela
We have spent the last decade, building and continuously optimizing a global backbone built for the digitally transforming enterprise. The result is a high-performance, low-latency private network across 65+ carriers worldwide, providing a highly meshed architecture over 180+ markets. In other words, it’s fast … really fast. What’s more, we can manage last-mile connectivity needs to remove the headache of managing multiple providers.
Tools to Monitor, Analyze and Optimize
Making sense of the volume of network and application data from the enterprise, Apcela created network monitoring and analytics tools. Apcela’s AppSensor™ is an application-aware, network performance monitoring and telemetry solution. Through network instrumentation, AppSensor proactively monitors and analyzes application performance across underlay and overlay networks, enabling infrastructure and operations teams to locate application-specific performance problems, thereby reducing time-to-diagnose and accelerating time-to-repair.
