Microsoft ExpressRoute provides Over the Wire customers with a private, dedicated, high-throughput network connection between Microsoft Azure data centres and Over the Wire’s National MPLS network.

By bypassing the public Internet, ExpressRoute connects customers directly to Azure with faster speeds, lower latencies and excellent reliability; resulting in increased security, reduced network costs and improved performance. This offers clients moving into the cloud environment a secure, high-performing experience that best suits their objectives.

In addition to Over the Wire’s already existing connection to Amazon’s AWS Direct Connect, Microsoft Azure via ExpressRoute will further allow us to provide clients with access to the technology that they specifically need. By connecting to ExpressRoute clients are able to fully integrate their cloud services and internal applications whilst benefitting from flexible and dynamic bandwidth.

Over the Wire Director, Brent Paddon, commented that “having direct access to Azure will allow our customers to seamlessly integrate Azure cloud with their own infrastructure and other services, forming their personalised hybrid cloud solution. This is a service that our clients have been eagerly anticipating and we are delighted to now be able to provide them with it.”
