The Alkira white paper presents Cloud Network-as-a-Service as a new model for simplifying and accelerating multi-cloud networking. Traditional DIY networks face challenges like complexity, high costs, and lack of visibility. Alkira addresses this with single-click provisioning of global multi-cloud networks, connecting users, sites, data centers, and clouds through Alkira Cloud Exchange Points. Features include elastic scaling, end-to-end segmentation, integrated firewalls, and intent-based policies for secure SaaS and Internet access. Benefits include reduced provisioning time from months to minutes, global security enforcement, high availability, and a pay-as-you-go model that aligns cost with actual usage.
