As a leader in multi-cloud networking solutions, Prosimo has announced the launch of Cross-Cloud Service Connect, a new set of capabilities under its Service Networking platform that can be deployed across multiple clouds.. Through this capability, hyperscalers will be able to address the technical limitations associated with their PrivateLink and endpoint networking by extending it to a multi-region and multi-cloud environment. There is no special underlay in the solution - it works on any underlay - the public cloud backbone, digital infrastructure providers or the Google cross-connect - and they all act as a foundational substrate for connecting cross-cloud services. Using our solution, applications and endpoints can connect natively and securely across cloud environments with a single click

By leveraging this cloud-native solution, three key use cases can be unlocked - distributed data access (e.g., an AI/ML engine accessing data across clouds), B2B partner connectivity across clouds, and self-service connectivity for developers to connect only the endpoints they are interested in.
With this cloud-native solution, three key use cases are unlocked - distributed data access (e.g., AI and ML engines accessing data from multiple clouds), B2B partner connectivity across clouds, and developer self-service to connect only endpoints of interest.
There is an increasing trend in enterprises adopting various AI services from different clouds and accessing distributed data from these clouds. As a result, networking in the cloud needs to evolve quickly to connect these service endpoints in a simple and secure way.. In the market today, there are a number of cloud networking solutions that focus solely on IP connectivity, but do not take into account endpoints for service delivery. A number of technologies for service mesh have been discussed for a while; enterprises still struggle with their side car proxies and agents that are not scalable or are not compatible with PaaS applications," said Mani Ganesan, vice president of product at Prosimo.

A native cloud provider's tool, such as PrivateLink, is, at best, able to solve a single cloud region, not a global cloud. "In this critical juncture of their cloud adoption journey, Ganesan explained that we built Cross-Cloud Service Connect in order to solve this challenge for enterprises." 
The process of connecting application and service endpoints across clouds is extremely complex in the present day
There is a challenge for enterprises when it comes to connecting application and service endpoints in different clouds.. It is not uncommon for AI & ML engines running on one cloud to need data access from another cloud, while business logic running on one cloud may need access to a cloud-native DB or S3 bucket in a different cloud. It is true that hyperscalers offer customers innovative native networking services, but enterprises still need to take manual-intensive steps & bring third-party proxy and networking stacks in order to enable cross-cloud connectivity.. Despite the fact that modern service mesh offerings do not support cloud-native endpoints such as PaaS applications, traditional network stacks that work at the IP layer require heavy IT efforts and can be expensive and time-consuming

The Prosimo Cross-Cloud Service Connect is built on its Full Stack architecture - so it is lightweight, offers fine-grained access control to ensure compliance, is more secure and cost-effective, and offers fine-grained access control to ensure compliance. It is also important to point out that Prosimo's integration with layer 3 connectivity fabrics, such as Megaport, makes it easy to connect across multiple clouds and regions quickly and easily. It serves as the foundational connectivity layer, providing the rapid response times necessary for modern cloud infrastructure operations.
An example of cross-cloud connectivity in action
 The following are some of the key benefits of Prosimo Cross-Cloud Service Connect:
Get the most out of cloud networking by unlocking agility
The Cross-Cloud Service Connect solution is already in production with Fortune 500 enterprises and has several use case demonstrations that demonstrate its proven success. The top three use cases where customers are deploying this solution are as follows:
It has been demonstrated that Prosimo's data management system has enabled fast and secure access to business-critical data for a wide range of data management systems, including Google Cloud's BigQuery for interactive analysis of large datasets and Amazon Web Services Sagemaker for pre-processing data and training models to perform sophisticated risk analyses. It is important to note that enterprises have been using this approach to solve the following distributed data scenarios:
Besides fostering B2B partner connectivity, the solution has also been proven to prioritize security while also fostering B2B partner connectivity. By providing lightweight PrivateLink architecture and endpoint-based architecture, Prosimo achieved this by connecting only endpoints of interest across clouds.
A third use case is developer self-service cloud networking, whereby Cross-Cloud Service Connect can eliminate the complexities associated with networking, access, and security requirements for developers, and enable them to improve their self-service.. As a result of this simplification, any application endpoint – including fully qualified domain names (FQDNs), IP addresses, containers, Kubernetes (K8), Platform-as-a-Services (PaaS) and serverless endpoints – can be seamlessly attached to any network or security boundary based on appropriate policies.
