About Wide-area Private Cloud (WPC)

Abstract

When you sign up for the service, CloudConnexa creates a virtually dedicated worldwide private network exclusively for your use. This virtual network is called a Wide-area Private Cloud (WPC).

CloudConnexa is a secure, reliable, multi-tenant, virtualized network-as-a-service (NaaS) that provides the foundation for evolving security initiatives like ZTNA, SSE, and SASE. When you sign up for the service, CloudConnexa creates a virtually dedicated worldwide private network exclusively for your use. This virtual network is called a Wide-area Private Cloud (WPC). The WPC is identified with the Cloud ID chosen during the signup process. Note: Once selected, the Cloud ID cannot be changed. The WPC is identified by [Cloud ID].openvpn.com.

Owners, Administrators, and Users can access their portals directly by going to https://[Cloud ID].openvpn.com. This same URL can also be used in the Connect Client application to log in and get the connection Profile to connect to your WPC.

Wide-area: This network has its Points of Presence worldwide, and your resources, users, and devices can connect to the WPC wherever internet access is available. Therefore, the scope of the network is wide-area.

Private: Even though the public internet is used for connectivity, VPN tunnels and multi-tenancy create a private overlay network over the internet that isolates the network and dedicates it to just your traffic.
