is now ACP Engineering. Same team, same expertise.
Cloud Connect from anywhere in Switzerland
2.5+ million fibre (FTTH) connections enabled across 400+ Init7 PoPs — dedicated network paths between your facilities and AWS cloud (10G, 25G, 100G).
Predictable performance
Dedicated bandwidth ensures consistent, low-latency network performance with direct routing to AWS, eliminating the unpredictability of public internet.
Enhanced security
Private Layer 2 connectivity eliminates exposure to the public internet, providing a secure path for sensitive data between your infrastructure and AWS.
Lower data transfer costs
Reduce your AWS data transfer costs compared to internet-based transfers, while benefiting from dedicated high-bandwidth connections up to 100G.
Rapid deployment
Get connected in as quick as 20 minutes for existing customers with available ports, or within a week for new OTO connections via Init7's nationwide fibre network.
Private, Low-Latency Connectivity to AWS
ACP Engineering and Init7 provide direct, high-performance connectivity to Amazon Web Services (AWS), eliminating the unpredictability of public internet routing. Cloud Connect is a dedicated network connection service that establishes a private link between your on-premises infrastructure and AWS.
As an AWS Advanced Direct Connect Partner, ACP Engineering, together with Init7, offers national connectivity reaching AWS global network and cloud regions — with scalable bandwidth from 50 Mbps to 100 Gbps.
Use Cases
- Hybrid Cloud Architecture — Seamlessly extend your on-premises environment to AWS, enabling a true hybrid cloud architecture with consistent, private connectivity.
- Data-Intensive Workloads — Transfer large datasets for analytics, machine learning, and big data processing with dedicated high-bandwidth connections.
- Disaster Recovery — Establish reliable replication with predictable bandwidth for business continuity and disaster recovery scenarios.
- Real-Time Applications — Support latency-sensitive systems such as financial trading, real-time analytics, and industrial IoT with consistent low-latency routing.
Why Choose This Partnership
