Culver City, California, United States
What it is
PacketFabric provides on-demand cloud access, Internet, and point-to-point connectivity through an API-driven platform. Its hybrid cloud service offers hosted and dedicated connections from hundreds of data centers to cloud and SaaS providers at 50Mbps to 100Gbps. PacketFabric describes a 65+ Tbps private optical network, with up to 4,000 virtual circuits supported on each network port. Listed partners include AWS Direct Connect, Google Cloud Interconnect, Azure ExpressRoute, IBM Direct Link, Oracle FastConnect, Salesforce Express Connect, Markley, and Webair. Customers can provision services in a self-service web portal or automate them with a standards-based REST API and Terraform provider. Internet Exchange connections are available through the portal. Cloud connectivity requires a physical cross-connect between customer equipment and the access port; dedicated connections also need a cloud-provider LOA and may take several days. PacketFabric supports VPN management, network monitoring, infrastructure as code, and multicloud deployments. Pricing is handled in the portal, with terms from month-to-month to 36 months.
