GPX Mumbai now offers dedicated Amazon Web Service Direct Connect

MUMBAI: GPX India Pvt Ltd, one of India’s carrier-neutral data centers, has announced that Amazon Web Services (AWS) Direct Connect is now available at GPX’s Tier IV Data Centre located in Andheri, Mumbai.

The company says that customers located in GPX’s Mumbai Data Centre can now establish dedicated connections to AWS for reduced costs, increased throughput, and consistent application performance. Customers with equipment located on their own premises, can also obtain private connections to AWS via the choice of available carriers in GPX’s Mumbai Data Centre.

Explaining in detail the company authorities indicated that using AWS Direct Connect can reduce bandwidth costs as data transferred over the dedicated connection is charged at the AWS Direct Connect data transfer rate rather than Internet data transfer rates. Additionally, with a private connection to AWS Direct Connect, businesses can experience lower latency and increased performance over Internet-based connections.

Commenting about this development Manoj Paul, COO GPX India, said, “GPX DC is pleased to provide new opportunities to our customers using AWS Direct Connect, helping them build solutions that utilise the economic benefits of AWS alongside their existing infrastructure. Our highly differentiated Tier IV Data Centre is already a thriving digital ecosystem and a leading interconnected Data Centre in India, providing direct access with a wide choice of connectivity options.”
