TL;DR
AWS launches Interconnect preview for dedicated private connections between AWS and other cloud providers, reducing multicloud setup from months to days.
Key Points
- Preview available in five AWS regions via AWS Management Console
- Google Cloud is launch partner; Microsoft Azure support planned for 2026
- Integrates with AWS Transit Gateway, Cloud WAN, and VPC for automated connectivity
- Open API package published on GitHub for CSP adoption
Why It Matters
This addresses a real operational pain point for enterprises running multicloud workloads. Previously, connecting AWS to other cloud providers required custom networking infrastructure and months of engineering. Interconnect-multicloud standardizes this with dedicated bandwidth, built-in resiliency, and managed security—letting teams focus on applications instead of network plumbing across cloud boundaries.
