Console Connect, OVHcloud Expand Toronto Cloud Access

Console Connect is now available from OVHcloud’s new Toronto data center, a move that is expected to broaden secure cloud access for businesses in Canada.

The expansion – which is housed at one of North America’s most dynamic innovation clusters – will allow organizations to rapidly move data between OVHcloud, enterprise locations, devices and other clouds, using a trusted solution on a single, on-demand platform while accelerating hybrid and multi-cloud adoption in Canada.

Businesses that prioritize uninterrupted access and data protection can now configure highly available redundancy through OVHcloud Connect (OCC) Provider, via Console Connect and backed by the extended PCCW Global private network.

Console Connect became a global OVHcloud Connect partner in 2023 and has, since then, added on-ramps to OVHcloud in Montreal. By expanding its presence to Toronto, Console Connect allows enterprises to interconnect OVHcloud’s data centers in the two Canadian cities, within minutes, via its private automated backbone.

“We are excited to grow our collaboration with OVHcloud as its global rollout continues, offering flexibility for businesses to take greater control of their cloud environment,” said Michael Glynn, SVP of digital automated innovation with PCCW Global. “As enterprises move more sensitive data to the cloud, Console Connect’s unmatched automated network fabric helps them avoid the public Internet and privately interconnect to OVHcloud, meeting the heightening demand in North America and internationally for performance, resilience and data governance.”

“OVHcloud is proud to enhance cloud connectivity for Canadian businesses through our collaboration with Console Connect, which simplifies network management and configuration for enterprises, reducing provisioning time to minutes and allowing them to dynamically adjust bandwidth to meet their changing needs,” said Estelle Azemard, VP Americas, OVHcloud. “This integration delivers the flexibility, reliability and performance needed to support hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, while reinforcing OVHcloud’s commitment to meeting the unique demands of enterprises across Canada.”

Whether seeking redundancy, security or speed, the Console Connect platform fits with companies looking for a more efficient, secure and cost-effective way to turn up a private connection between any cloud provider to OVHcloud. They can also securely migrate their data, then tear down the connection when complete.
