\u200b<\/span>Alkira has announced the expansion of its business ties with Amazon Web Services (AWS)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The firm also announced integration with AWS Transit Gateway Connect, a service that allows native integration of software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN)<\/a> appliances with AWS.<\/p>\n

The combined solution will provide seamless AWS capabilities to Alkira customers and simplify cloud networking services for on-premises<\/a>, cloud<\/a>, and multi-cloud environments.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Alkira announced a multi-year international agreement with AWS customer Warner Music Group to deploy Alkira Cloud Services Exchange (CSX).<\/p>\n

\u201cAlkira is thrilled with this closer business engagement with AWS to offer hundreds of thousands of AWS customers a more sophisticated, yet simplified network<\/a> infrastructure, consumed completely as-a-service,\u201d said Amir Khan, CEO<\/a> and founder of Alkira.<\/p>\n

Khan added, \u201cVisionaries like Ralph Munsen, CIO of Warner Music Group can now realise the company\u2019s cloud networking vision and consume their complete network infrastructure<\/a> directly from the only comprehensive Cloud Network infrastructure as-a-Service (CNaaS) in the AWS.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alkira has also been accepted into the AWS ISV Accelerate Program, a co-sell program for AWS partners that offer solutions integrated with or running on AWS.<\/p>\n

Alkira will also participate in the AWS Global Startup Program aimed at supporting mid-to-late-stage startups that have raised institutional funding, achieved product-market fit, and are ready for scaling.<\/p>\n

\u201cCloud has a lot of promise, but we\u2019re always working to improve our network agility and performance and to ensure a seamless process especially in this fast-moving virtual world we\u2019re doing business in,\u201d said Ralph Munsen, CIO of Warner Music Group.<\/p>\n

Munsen continued, \u201cAlkira addresses our cloud networking infrastructure as-a-service needs and we\u2019re pleased to see the close collaboration with AWS. WMG evaluated multiple multi-cloud networking solutions and selected Alkira because the Alkira CSX greatly simplifies management of our network infrastructure and enables us to focus on the growth of our business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Together, Alkira and AWS will provide customers with enhanced agility, more advanced networking, and improved procurement experiences. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
