Highlights
Pay what you use
Get cost clarity and contract flexibility - pay only for what you need, with no contract lock-in.
Enhanced operational flexibility
630 cloud products pre-integrated e.g., SaaS, SASE and Office 365 plus direct cloud coverage to 74% of hyperscaler PoP locations. This makes it easier for you to spin connections up and down in near real time in order to move workloads and optimise opex costs without the network being a drag on the speed of change for your business.
Global Secure Multi-Service Connectivity
Global scale and resiliency – available in over 200+ countries, with direct, high-bandwidth connectivity to over 700 data centres worldwide. End-to-end multi-service - easily switch, flex or swap-out IP VPN, internet and layer 2 ethernet on-demand. High performing, low latency network which optimises performance of your applications. Security without impacting performance - supports Zero Trust and has embedded DDoS and advanced DDoS protection services. End-to-end control over routing makes data sovereignty simple and reliable.
Digital control
Digital control over your connectivity needs using web app/APIs/ SNOW app. Interact with BT according to your requirements – from DIY to fully managed options. Simply search, select and connect from or to any location or cloud in minutes.
Overview
Product description

Integrated SASE - Enhanced security from the cloud and SD-WAN. Summary of the Global Fabric proposition: · Global Fabric transforms and future-proofs connectivity through the world’s largest pre-integrated cloud and public network. · Global scale and resiliency – available in over 200+ countries, with direct, high-bandwidth connectivity to over 700 data centres worldwide. · Enhanced operational flexibility - 630 cloud products pre-integrated e.g., SaaS, SASE and Office 365 plus direct cloud coverage to 74% of hyperscaler PoP locations. This makes it easier for you to spin connections up and down in near real time in order to move workloads and optimise opex costs without the network being a drag on the speed of change for your business. · End-to-end multi-service - easily switch, flex or swap-out IP VPN, internet and layer 2 ethernet on-demand. · Digital control over your connectivity needs using web app/APIs/ SNOW app. Interact with BT according to your requirements – from DIY to fully managed options. Simply search, select and connect from or to any location or cloud in minutes. · Get cost clarity and contract flexibility - pay only for what you need, with no contract lock-in. · Control Service Ops run costs using automation and leverage BT’s investment in skilled teams to avoid hiring/reskilling your ops team. · High performing, low latency network which optimises performance of your applications: Dedicated or shared connectivity to the cloud can enable solutions to reduce hyperscaler egress costs. Each metro area will have a dense PoP architecture, allowing you to avoid significant increases in latency associated with re-routing traffic via a different metro or cloud region should for example, expressroute fail. As a result, your end users should not be impacted. The high bandwidth global core network is fully resilient, dimensioned to cope with failure without dropping packets or materially impacting latency. · Simplified service insertion of VNFs such as SD-WAN and firewalls at CNFs. · Security without impacting performance - supports Zero Trust and has embedded DDoS and advanced DDoS protection services. End-to-end control over routing makes data sovereignty simple and reliable. · Reduced carbon footprint - 100% renewable energy with a carbon footprint 79% lower than our current MPLS network.
