Improve application responsiveness with Edge Cloud
Designed to eliminate on-premise footprint for smart or real-time applications without the hassle of physical infrastructure deployment and management, SPTel has numerous pervasive hubs distributed across Singapore and invested in edge computing capabilities to support the anticipated trends for distributed IT/data analytics services, especially in IoT & 5G deployments.
By placing resources closer to data-originating locations, devices such as surveillance cameras do not have to send traffic all the way to a centralised data centre or public cloud for video analytic processing. This improves application performance and reduces bandwidth congestion to single data centre or public cloud.
Integrated with SPTel’s Software Defined Network, our edge cloud is also equipped with an intuitive cloud management portal, offering users to spin up a new compute, storage or network resources, manage data across hybrid clouds, get insights on usage or even implement cost controls within minutes.
Coupled with SPTel’s Cloud Connect Services, enterprises can always ensure a secure and low latency connection between the Edge Cloud to the leading public clouds. Enterprises can also enjoy the improved security Edge Cloud services by subscribing to SPTel’s Threat Protection and DDOS Protect Services.
Benefits of Edge Computing
-
Cost Savings
Save on infrastructure maintenance and management costs by utilising virtual machines and cloud storage on our edge cloud. Data transfer is free which can save up to 20% of typical service charges.
-
Improved Application Performance
Ultra low latency access to our edge computing hubs around the nation means you can perform data processing closer to the things, events and people you serve for enhanced application performance.
-
Data Sovereignty
Dedicated vFirewall deployed individually for each customer unlike typical vFirewall solutions which are deployed as a shared service. It provides the custom security of a hardware-based firewall to individual requirement.
-
Unlimited Flexibility and Scalability
Firewalls are deployed in SPTel’s private cloud and datacentre with various infrastructural/physical redundancy in place.
-
Unified Management
Manage the resources across multi clouds all from a single, unified console
-
Reduce Network Congestion
Data processing at the edge will help free up otherwise congested connectivity towards central data centre or public cloud due to large volume of data generated from on site devices such as surveillance cameras and other monitoring sensors.
Features
High Availability and Recovery Options
Diversify how your data is protected and where it’s located.
Unified Cloud Management Portal
Manage your resources across multiple clouds via a single, unified self-service console.
Pervasive Islandwide Multi-Edge Computing
Leverage on SPTel truly diverse network and 4 edge zones distributed across Singapore’s key commercial & industrial districts to perform pervasive multi-edge computing.
Critical Information Infrastructure (CII)
Host your applications in a Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) with stringent security operations (eg. escorted access)
Direct Cloud Connect to Public Clouds
Made possible with Edge Cloud Connect in SPTel IPVPN to connect private clouds or data centre sites, and IPVPN Cloud Connect to public clouds such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc. for a holistic cloud computing environment.
Infrastructure as-a-Service
Security and Network provides powerful physical server infrastructure at predictable operational costs for high compute performance, mature applications, or stable workloads, and avoids noisy neighbour effect as a result of over resource virtualisation in public cloud environment.
Recommended for:
-
IoT/Application Solution Providers
Who require a low latency, ready-to-use distributed edge cloud platform to host their applications
-
Large and Medium Enterprises
Developing smart applications that leverage big data, Artificial Intelligence or Internet of Things to automate and digitalise
-
Cloud Providers
Tier 2/3 private cloud providers looking to partner for Edge Cloud
