Webair Uses PacketFabric as an On-Ramp to AWS to Support its Enterprise-grade Customers

PACKETFABRIC PROVIDES ADDED FLEXIBILITY FOR OFF-SITE BACKUPS AND DISASTER RECOVERY.

The Challenge

Webair offers a complete portfolio of fully managed services, including off-site backups, disaster recovery-as-a-service, managed security, cloud storage, and more. In addition to its own facilities, Webair also offers AWS as a target for offsite backups and disaster recovery. Many of Webair’s clients have intensive security and compliance requirements, and Webair needed to expand its options for sending traffic to AWS over a secure network.

The Solution

PacketFabric proposed establishing a direct, secure connection to AWS at Webair’s data centers on the east and west coast of the US using its cloud on-ramp product. This would allow Webair to connect to AWS via PacketFabric, for customer use cases in which AWS was the most appropriate solution.

The Results

  • Using PacketFabric to connect to AWS provides added flexibility for Webair’s customer base
  • Being able to offer multi-cloud management to customers who have production workloads in AWS has increased Webair’s competitive advantage
  • PacketFabric gives Webair instant access to expanded infrastructure without the need to build or manage it themselves
