Insights
DigitalOcean's launch of Partner Network Connect represents a strategic expansion of their service portfolio that addresses the growing demand for multi-cloud connectivity solutions. By partnering with Megaport, DigitalOcean is effectively eliminating a significant barrier that has prevented some businesses from adopting their platform alongside major hyperscalers.
The technical advantages are substantial. Private connectivity that bypasses the public internet offers security benefits that are essential for businesses in regulated industries, while the reduced latency is critical for data-intensive applications. Most cloud providers charge substantial egress fees for data leaving their networks - by offering all-in pricing with no data transfer charges, DigitalOcean is creating a compelling cost advantage that aligns with their brand promise of simplicity and predictability.
This launch directly targets the multi-cloud trend that continues to accelerate, particularly among mid-market businesses that need to distribute workloads across providers for redundancy, compliance, or specialized capabilities. The integration with Megaport's established NaaS platform gives DigitalOcean instant connectivity to all major cloud providers without building the entire infrastructure themselves - a smart way to accelerate time-to-market.
The exclusion of certain regions (SYD1, LON1, BLR1, TOR1) suggests a phased rollout approach, likely prioritizing regions with the highest multi-cloud demand patterns. For DigitalOcean customers, this eliminates the need to manage complex VPNs or dedicated connections when operating across clouds, potentially increasing stickiness and workload expansion on their platform.
DigitalOcean's new Partner Network Connect addresses a critical gap in their business offering that should strengthen their competitive position against both larger cloud providers and specialized hosting companies. The multi-cloud connectivity market is experiencing accelerated growth as organizations increasingly adopt distributed cloud architectures.
This product launch delivers strategic value in three key dimensions: First, it expands DigitalOcean's addressable market by catering to businesses with more complex infrastructure needs that previously might have dismissed the platform. Second, it creates potential for increased revenue per customer as businesses can now more easily split workloads between DigitalOcean and other providers based on optimal price-performance characteristics. Finally, it enhances customer retention by reducing migration friction once integrated into multi-cloud architectures.
The all-in pricing model with no data transfer charges is particularly significant. Data egress fees represent a substantial hidden cost in cloud computing - by offering predictable pricing, DigitalOcean differentiates from larger competitors who typically charge premium fees for inter-cloud data movement. This aligns with DigitalOcean's positioning as the developer-friendly alternative to complex hyperscalers.
The Megaport partnership is also noteworthy as it leverages existing infrastructure rather than building proprietary solutions, allowing for faster scaling while minimizing capital investment. This offering should help DigitalOcean continue expanding upmarket while maintaining its simplicity-focused value proposition that resonates with small to medium businesses and developers.
New connectivity solution is designed to simplify multi-cloud and hybrid cloud networking, helping to enhance performance and security options for businesses
DigitalOcean’s all-in pricing with no charges on the data transfer lowers the total cost of ownership, making it more cost effective for businesses. Partner Network Connect also enhances existing network solutions like DigitalOcean VPC and VPC Peering by extending private connectivity beyond a single cloud environment, and complements services like load balancers by enabling secure, predictable traffic paths between environments.
As more businesses adopt multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments, managing cloud connectivity can become both complex and costly. Partner Network Connect offers a seamless solution, providing a private connection to support distributed workloads, powered by DigitalOcean’s integration with Megaport, a leading Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) provider. This solution helps growing businesses connect DigitalOcean with other cloud providers such as AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud, and others – without the complexity or expense of traditional VPNs or self-managed solutions.
"DigitalOcean Partner Network Connect provides customers with a more secure, high-performance networking between DigitalOcean and other cloud providers or on-premises data centers," said Bratin Saha, Chief Product and Technology Officer at DigitalOcean. "This integration with Megaport equips businesses with the capability they need to connect their multi-cloud infrastructure easily, helping to improve security, performance, and cost control, all with the simplicity and predictable pricing from DigitalOcean."
"Integrating with DigitalOcean addresses a clear market need for simpler multi-cloud connectivity," said Michael Reid, CEO of Megaport. "Growing businesses shouldn't have to choose between performance and simplicity, especially when running data-intensive or AI workloads. Our integration with DigitalOcean provides private, high-speed connections for today's distributed applications, helping customers move data efficiently across cloud environments without the traditional networking headaches or costs."
Key Benefits of Partner Network Connect:
- Improved latency: Low latency, high-bandwidth private connectivity (1 Gbps to 10 Gbps) for faster, more reliable performance across cloud and on-premises environments.
- Enhanced security: Private connections are designed to keep sensitive data off the public internet, helping to provide added security for critical workloads.
- Cost optimization and predictability: Businesses can minimize data transfer costs by avoiding egress charges and optimizing cross-cloud networking.
- Simplified management: There is no separate review process for throughput reservation. Customers simply reserve the needed throughput from the DigitalOcean Networking console and complete the connectivity with Megaport.
Real-world Use Cases:
- FinTech & Healthcare companies handling sensitive data: Organizations in regulated industries can help enhance security by keeping financial transactions and patient records off the public internet.
- AdTech and MarTech: Companies looking to enhance content delivery, data-driven personalization, and real-time ad bidding using multi-cloud connectivity.
- SaaS providers managing multi-cloud deployments: Software companies deploying applications across DigitalOcean and other cloud providers can simplify cross-cloud networking, reducing operational complexity and costs.
- Online businesses, like global e-learning platforms: These organizations serve students and educators across various regions, and require the ability to deliver data to multiple geographic locations while maintaining performance and unified end-user experience.
Partner Network Connect is available in all DigitalOcean regions except SYD1, LON1, BLR1 and TOR1. It can be accessed via both the UI and API. To learn more or get started, visit the DigitalOcean Partner Network Connect documentation.
