Alkira, a pioneer in agentless, multi-cloud networking, and Itential, a leader in network and cloud automation software, have integrated their two platforms, bringing automation, simplicity, speed and control to cloud networking for enterprises.
Alkira simplifies the provisioning, operation, and management of multi-cloud networking, making it straightforward to connect different sites, users or cloud applications. Alkira also provides hybrid cloud connectivity, enabling users to connect their on-premises environments to Alkira’s CXP with traffic running on the Alkira cloud backbone.
Itential enables infrastructure teams to automate network and security configuration changes across hybrid multi-cloud networks and integrate with IT systems to orchestrate the entire end-to-end change management process.
Together the platforms give enterprises the ability to deploy, manage and operate enterprise-grade networks for cloud and on-premises with full end-to-end automation, reducing time to market for business-critical services.
By integrating the two platforms, network teams can build automation that use Alkira’s unique cloud features along with integrating with on-prem network and security solutions, and IT systems like IPAM, ITSM and sources of truth. The joint integration addresses several use cases, including:
- Cloud onboarding
- Cloud to internet connectivity
- Cloud security
- On-prem to cloud connectivity
- Multi-cloud connectivity
- Cloud backbone (inter-region connectivity)
