Vast Edge delivers top-tier cloud interconnect solutions for enterprises looking to connect AT&T environments with leading cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Oracle Cloud.
Delivering excellence for over two decades
With AT&T NetBond for Cloud, businesses can enable secure, private connectivity between their networks and cloud environments without depending on the public internet. This helps organizations improve performance, support hybrid cloud strategies, and strengthen operational resilience.
AT&T and leading cloud service providers create a mutually connected network between the AT&T network and cloud peering locations, allowing organizations to access both public and private cloud solutions through a more secure and integrated architecture.
It provides an integrated network that brings together your data centers, public clouds, and private clouds in a hybrid environment, helping organizations improve connectivity, reduce dependency on the public internet, and support backup and disaster recovery strategies.
Vast Edge helps enterprises plan, implement, and optimize AT&T NetBond cloud interconnect solutions across major cloud platforms. From architecture planning to deployment support, our team helps businesses build secure, scalable, and reliable connectivity for hybrid and multi-cloud operations.
Organizations can use these solutions to improve cloud access, support migration initiatives, strengthen security posture, and enable consistent performance for critical workloads and enterprise applications.
To connect AT&T to the cloud, select a cloud service solution from industry-leading CSPs, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Oracle Cloud, to become a virtual extension of your multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) virtual private network (VPN) from AT&T.
This approach gives enterprises more secure cloud connectivity and better control over how workloads, users, and applications interact across hybrid environments.
Through Google’s Partner Interconnect, organizations can get private connectivity to GCP. It also allows data centers located far from a Google Cloud region or point of presence to connect at speeds of up to 10 Gbps.
It enables customers to use AT&T NetBond and connect to Google Cloud Platform in a secure and scalable way. Businesses can also connect to Google Cloud through Cloud VPN when needed.
Businesses using AT&T to connect to GCP can use AT&T NetBond for Cloud to move workloads across multiple cloud environments without relying on the public internet. This helps support secure connectivity, better performance, and more scalable managed cloud services.
To deliver more innovative and collaborative solutions to businesses, GCP and AT&T work together to connect customers to the cloud. This allows businesses to communicate and collaborate more effectively from virtually anywhere while connecting their networks to highly scalable and reliable infrastructure.
The alliance also makes Google’s cloud-based productivity capabilities more accessible for businesses looking to improve collaboration and cloud adoption across teams.
Incorporating Oracle Network Cloud Service FastConnect into the AT&T NetBond for Cloud ecosystem gives business customers another cloud service migration option. It allows organizations to manage and access Oracle Cloud services through secure and dedicated connectivity.
This model provides highly secure connectivity, strong reliability, and an improved end-user experience for organizations running Oracle workloads in cloud environments.
With this alliance, customers get secure access to a major cloud provider while also supporting business strategies that require high-bandwidth connectivity. By connecting through an Oracle FastConnect Partner, such as an IP VPN, MPLS VPN network service provider, or data center exchange provider, businesses can build reliable access to Oracle Cloud services.
For organizations managing Oracle-based enterprise workloads, this type of connectivity can also support hosted Oracle Primavera environments and broader cloud modernization goals.
Steps
1. Log in to the AT&T Cloud Service Portal.
2. Go to Home, then My Cloud Dashboard, then AT&T NetBond for Cloud service management.
3. Choose Oracle Cloud from the CSP list and select the region where FastConnect should be enabled.
4. Click Create VNC (Virtual Network Connection) and enter the required parameters:
● Routing domain
● VNC type
● VNC name
● VPN name
● Minimum bandwidth commitment in Mbps
5. Wait for the VNC to be created.
6. Once the VNC is ready, create the VLAN inside the VNC.
7. After the VLAN is created, access the Service Key that must be sent to Oracle through an SR.
8. Open the SR on the Oracle side:
● Service type: Oracle Network Cloud Service - FastConnect
● Problem type: Issues with account or provisioning of your FastConnect
9. Wait 1 to 2 business days for Oracle to complete the configuration. Once completed, the status in the OCI Web UI changes to Provisioned.
Before activating NetBond for Cloud services, customers create a Microsoft ExpressRoute virtual network gateway in the Microsoft Azure portal within the required virtual network.
This setup supports secure and consistent connectivity between AT&T environments and Azure cloud resources for enterprises that need reliable hybrid cloud performance.
Steps
1. Create a Microsoft ExpressRoute Virtual Network Gateway and Microsoft ExpressRoute Circuit.
2. Create the Virtual Network Connection (VNC).
3. Create the VLAN.
4. Connect the Microsoft Azure Virtual Network to the Microsoft ExpressRoute Circuit.
AWS customers using AT&T connectivity can access highly secure and flexible connectivity options to support cloud, cybersecurity, and mobility requirements. These solutions help organizations modernize infrastructure and support distributed workforces with better-performing cloud connectivity.
AT&T NetBond to AWS Cloud Interconnect can provide customers with a highly secure, cloud-optimized networking environment. It also supports enterprises looking to align connectivity with broader cloud security services and multi-cloud strategies.
The AWS Direct Connect bundle for End User Computing highlights the use case between Amazon WorkSpaces and cloud connectivity solutions for enterprise users.
Steps
1. Attach the Virtual Private Gateway to the VPC.
2. Create the VNC.
3. Create the VLAN.
4. Accept the Direct Connect virtual interfaces in the AWS Console.
5. Update the Amazon route tables for each subnet.
