Verizon's Secure Cloud Interconnect (SCI) allows direct connections into leading cloud providers (Amazon, Google, HP, Microsoft, Salesforce and Verizon) and three data center providers (Equinix, Verizon and CoreSite).



The service really represents an evolution of connectivity, says Shawn Hakl, VP of Product & Innovation at Verizon Enterprise.

Verizon's SCI now provides connections to six cloud providers (Amazon, Google, HP, Microsoft, Salesforce and Verizon) and now three data center providers (Equinix, Verizon and CoreSite). SCI is built on Verizon’s Private IP network that offers any-to-any connectivity of IP via MPLS, while providing the security and reliability associated with private wide-area networking solutions. Using Verizon’s Mobile Private Networking service, SCI is further extended to users of its 4G LTE service.
