Singtel today announced a collaboration with Alibaba Cloud, which connects Singtel’s Cloud Access service to Alibaba Cloud, allowing enterprises around the world to access its cloud applications more quickly and securely.

Singtel Cloud Access service is based on Singtel’s extensive Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network (IP VPN) with 428 Points-of-Presence (PoP) around the world. The service allows enterprises to access cloud applications through a secure, private network, rather than internet-based connections which are vulnerable to disruptions. With reliable and high-speed connectivity, enterprises can perform business-critical functions more cost-efficiently, wherever they are.

Singtel will first roll out the cloud access service in Singapore and Hong Kong, before offering it in the United States and Europe.

Alibaba Cloud is one of the world’s leading cloud computing companies and the leading cloud services provider in China. It is the latest addition to Singtel’s partner network which provides secure connections to the world’s leading public cloud providers such as Amazon, Microsoft, IBM SoftLayer and Google across 30 global cities.

Bill Chang, CEO, Group Enterprise, Singtel
Riding on Singtel’s extensive IP VPN, enterprises in China and Singapore will find the new connection particularly useful as it eases their operations and business expansion seamlessly.

Ethan Yu, VP of Alibab Group and GM of Alibab Cloud Global 
We are happy to partner with Singtel to serve customers’ growing need for faster connectivity and more robust cloud infrastructure both in China and worldwide.
