Cloud networking and security-as-a-service provider GTT Communications says it has expanded its global Tier 1 IP backbone in nine more countries in the Latin America and Asia Pacific regions.
In a statement on Wedneaday, GTT said its EnvisionCore IP network – which delivers low-latency connectivity for cloud-based applications and enterprise-grade traffic – now reaches key metro markets in Argentina, Chile, China, Colombia, India, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea and Thailand.
EnvisionCore serves as the backbone for GTT’s Envision platform, which provides access to the company’s suite of managed networking and security services, including Ethernet, SD-WAN, DDoS mitigation, SASE and managed firewall services.
GTT’s COO George Kuzmanovski said the expansion will boost connectivity options for wholesalers and enterprises operating in those markets, offering up to 400G speeds to handle growing demand for AI workloads and other hyperscale cloud apps.
“We’re especially pleased to expand our EnvisionCore platform to serve customers from these new locations, enhancing their network performance and improving network resiliency,” he said in a statement.
