Overview

Service Overview

Cloud Fabric Connect is a service that directly connects a customer’s On-Prem resources located in a neutral data center with multiple CSPs (AWS, GCP, Azure) via a private network. This enables customers to easily configure and use hybrid and multi‑cloud environments.
The Cloud Fabric Connect service consists of Fabric, the customer’s virtual space that includes location information; a physical Port that forms the network connecting on‑prem resources within the Fabric; a Connection that provides logical connection services between on‑prem resources and the CSP; and a Policy that applies routing/filtering policies to the connection segment.

Provided features

Cloud Fabric Connect provides the following features.

  • Connection Automation: We automatically connect the infrastructure built in the network-neutral data centers (Gasan, Pyeongchon) with multiple CSPs (AWS, GCP, Azure), providing a differentiated and convenient service compared to other companies that connect manually through SR (Service Request).
  • Various bandwidth options: When creating a Cloud Link, you can freely select from various bandwidth options according to the required traffic capacity, allowing you to optimize network costs.
  • Multi-CSP Integration and Policy Enforcement: Supports flexible multi‑cloud network usage by enabling inter‑routing integration among the three CSPs (AWS, GCP, Azure) and applying customized routing policies.
  • Samsung Cloud Platform Integration: By connecting to Samsung Cloud Platform via the Direct Connect service, you can use a variety of Samsung Cloud Platform services. * (As of September 2026, SR-based manual connection provided)

Component

Cloud Fabric Connect consists of the following components, and users can directly create each resource from the Console.

Categorycontent
Fabricthe customer’s virtual space located at a specific location (Gasan, Pyeongchon)
  • refers to the set of connections between On-Prem resources and CSP
PortSwitch equipment port allocated for connecting the customer’s On-Prem resources
  • refers to the physical port of the service infrastructure (Border Leaf switch) equipment
ConnectionService that provides logical connections between On-Prem resources and CSP within the Fabric
  • Select L2/L3 type, enter Gateway name, and specify whether to use Jumbo Frame
Cloud LinksSelect the target region and bandwidth settings for the three CSPs (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • At this stage, the connection bandwidth billing ledger is created
  • The option to enable routing propagation between the three CSPs is also provided at this stage
Port BindingConnect the created port to the target resource (Cloud Link or Gateway)
BGPConfigure BGP routing for mutual communication on the Customer Side where On-Prem resources are connected, or on the CSP Side where Cloud Links are connected
  • Enter ASN, Peer IP, MD5 Key, etc
PolicyA service that defines advanced routing and filtering to be applied to specific targets within a Connection and provides policy configuration.
ObjectWhen configuring BGP routing, set the attributes used for routing/filtering matches
  • IP Prefix, Community, AS-PATH
RuleWhen configuring BGP routing, define the Match Object and Set Action to apply
  • Action : AS-PATH Prepend, Add/remove Community
  • Delete Community, Set Local Preference, Set MED
ProfileSelection of the direction to apply BGP routing and a collection of multiple Rule configurations
  • Routing configuration direction (Import or Export Rule)
AttachmentSelect the profile name to apply BGP routing and set the target.

Constraints

The limitations of the Cloud Fabric Connect service are as follows.

  • As of the September 2026 launch, service is provided only at the Gasan and Pyeongchon locations in Korea.
  • The CSPs that can be connected via Cloud Link are the three providers AWS, GCP, and Azure.
    • As of the September 2026 release, Azure-oriented Cloud Links connections are provided only at the additional location of the Enterprise offering.
  • Fabric can be created up to one per Location per Account, with a maximum of two.
  • If the Fabric location is Gasan and the CSP is AWS, the maximum connection bandwidth is 1 Gbps.
  • After creating the Cloud Link connection bandwidth, the connection bandwidth speed cannot be changed.
  • As of the September 2026 release, Samsung Cloud Platform’s Direct Connect service and automated connections are not provided. * After receiving a service request (SR), we configure the service manually.
