Do I need private interconnections?
Connecting users to applications via the internet presents challenges in terms of privacy, security, and reliability. While the internet is widely accessible, it can lead to latency issues and decreased quality for real-time communications like video or voice chat. Encryption methods such as VPNs improve security but may increase latency and negatively impact call quality. Private interconnects offer a more secure and reliable alternative by minimizing hops between infrastructure services, prioritizing traffic, and reducing latency. By directly connecting infrastructure over private networks, businesses can maintain control over their systems and ensure high-quality service.
