In an era of digital transformation, more and more enterprises are deciding that they want to direct connectivity to the cloud. Research from IDG Cloud Computing Survey found that 59% of tech buyers said they planned to be “mostly” (43%) or “all” (16%) in the cloud in 18 months, up from 38% who say they are mostly or all in the cloud today.
Compared to in house hosting cloud based hosting, enterprises are increasingly running hybrid, multisite and/or multi cloud service environments. According to The Information, Trends in Cloud Adoption – 2021, 45% of organizations are using two to three cloud service infrastructure providers.
Enterprises Are Increasing Moving to Cloud Exchanges
Outsourcing connectivity to cloud service providers can increase operational flexibility, agility and cost savings while delivering better performance, ongoing security and even potentially improving compliance. With cloud, for example, even small businesses can have access to enterprise-level security. But, with multiple cloud providers involved, the situation still has the potential to create complexity.
Enter cloud exchange solutions to streamline these relationships. Enterprises can use cloud exchange platforms to simplify their networking requirements and cloud architectures, with all the benefits that this implies for global exchange of cloud resources.
A cloud exchange works by connecting an enterprise directly to a variety of cloud providers networks. The cloud exchange provider acts as a one-stop digital transformation solution that ensures smooth, stable direct connectivity to multiple cloud service networks through colocation services. Instead of dealing with each network provider separately, enterprise customers can simply go through a single cloud exchange.
Moving your WAN network to a cloud exchange delivers multiple benefits, namely :
- Increased Reliability
- Better Security
- Reduced Cost
- Increased Flexibility
Why is Telin teaming up with AWS?

Meanwhile, Telin and its parent company Telkom are the leading provider of digital connectivity and related services in Indonesia. The synergy between AWS and Telin therefore makes sense as an effort to better serve enterprises in Indonesia through global cloud exchange colocation and business exchange solutions.
Introducing Telin Cloud eXchange (TCX)
Enterprises looking for a robust and reliable cloud exchange provider now have the option of Telin Cloud eXchange (TCX). Offered in cooperation with AWS, TCX is a high-quality solution managed service backed by Telin’s excellent track record, that offers direct connectivity to the public cloud in a faster, efficient and more secure manner.
Specifically, TCX managed services enable customers to quickly establish a private, low-latency network connectivity from their premises to AWS. Using MPLS as a virtual private network, customers can expect greatly reduced data transit time between routers compared with other IP routing providers, while also reducing costs on two fronts.
It works like this: first, by transferring data to and from AWS directly, customers can reduce their bandwidth commitment to their internet service provider. Second, all data transferred over a customer’s dedicated connection is charged at the reduced AWS Direct Connect data transfer rate rather than internet data transfer rates.
Service for this on-demand hosted direct connectivity model is available at various bandwidth options, while a fast-provisioning process lets customers add multiple connections for more capacity.
Overview of Telin Cloud eXchange (TCX) Benefits
TCX offers superior connection to AWS compared with many other providers. Anchored by Telin’s track record of top notch customer service and AWS’ reputation for technical excellence, you can be certain that TCX is able to offer standout performance, flexibility and reliability accompanied by cost savings and state-of-the-art security as follows :
