Overview

Service Overview

Samsung Cloud Platform provides Direct Connect service to support safe and fast connection between the customer’s network and the Samsung Cloud Platform environment. Through Direct Connect, you can allocate the internal private network range of the existing system to Samsung Cloud Platform resources and use it. You can deploy Backend systems such as application servers in a private network range without internet access, and you can enhance security by applying network services of Samsung Cloud Platform such as Security Group.

Through Direct Connect, even if the customer’s existing system hard-codes IPs on devices or has architecture dependencies on IP, it can seamlessly migrate to Samsung Cloud Platform.
