Cloud connected

Adopting a combination of on-premise, off-premise and public cloud capabilities is the only way to keep up with the rapid market changes digital disruption is driving. The ATC is a replica of that ever-changing landscape with integration into all three major Cloud Service Providers, leveraging low latency connections through our Equinix Extension.

Testing in the ATC makes it all real

We use enterprise-class traffic generation tools, such as Ixia IxLoad, to simulate the applications that are unique to your organization to show how a solution seamlessly integrates into your network. Over the years we have developed a testing framework that allows us to go from concept to test plan to achieve the outcome needed for your product or solution evaluation.
