Air-Gapped vs Private Network Backup: Which Is More Secure?

Compare air-gapped and private network backup approaches for ransomware defense, data protection, and secure recovery. Ransomware doesn’t stop at production data. Attackers are increasingly targeting the backups organizations depend on for recovery, turning a manageable incident into a much longer outage. These attacks make the choice between air-gapped and private network backup important — but it isn’t an either-or decision.

How Agentic AI Could Change Global Network Deployment

From the Alibaba Cloud Apsara Conference stage, here's a look at how Agentic AI, APIs, and NaaS could simplify network deployment and automate routing decisions. At this year’s Alibaba Cloud Apsara Conference in China, I was honored to represent Megaport on stage to present our live demo session “Alibaba Cloud × Megaport: Making Agentic Networks Simpler”.

Building Production-ready AI Infrastructure? Start With the Network

AI workloads depend on fast, secure, and scalable access to data across on-premises systems, colocation, cloud platforms, and GPU environments. Here’s how private connectivity can help enterprises move from AI proof of concept to production-ready infrastructure. AI pilots tend to be forgiving. Production isn’t. In the early stages, a team can usually get by with a simple path into a GPU environment, enough bandwidth to test an idea, and a security model that suits a limited group of users.

Megaport Advanced Services: From Network Design to Deployment

Network changes often stall after the design is done. See how Megaport Advanced Services helps teams move from planning to implementation and support. Ask a network team where their last big network change got stuck and you’ll rarely hear “we couldn’t work out the design.” The completed design is usually sitting in a document somewhere, reviewed and signed off. What stalls is everything needed after that. Somebody has to write the runbook. Somebody has to sit in the 2 a.m.

How to Use Megaport Storage as a Veeam Backup Target

Learn how to use Megaport Storage as an S3-compatible Veeam backup target for scalable, private, offsite backup storage. Table of Contents A backup is only useful if it can be retrieved when needed. Where backups are stored determines how well they’re protected from incidents at the primary site, how long recovery transfers take, and what it costs to bring the data back.

Predictable Cloud Egress Is Finally Here: How Megaport Unlocks It All

Discover how AWS Direct Connect flat-rate pricing makes cloud egress predictable and how Megaport enables high-volume data migration. AWS has announced flat-rate pricing for Direct Connect, bringing more predictable egress costs to eligible 10 Gbps and 100 Gbps Dedicated Connections. Here’s what the new egress pricing model means for bulk data migration, plus how Megaport helps you make the most of it with private connectivity to the storage and compute your workloads need.

Why India Belongs on Your Network Roadmap

India is the world's fourth-largest economy and accelerating fast. Here's why it should be on your network roadmap. Few markets combine scale, speed, and government intent the way India does right now. With a digital economy on track to reach USD $1 trillion by 2030, hyperscalers committing tens of billions in fresh investment, and connectivity infrastructure undergoing a generational upgrade, India has become one of the most consequential expansion decisions a technology business can make.

What Is Immutable Backup and Why Does It Matter for Ransomware Recovery?

Learn how immutable backups protect data from deletion, encryption, and ransomware attacks so organizations can recover clean copies. Table of Contents Ransomware attacks are a major threat to modern organizations. Cybercriminals encrypt an organization’s data and demand payments to restore access to it. Modern ransomware also attempts to destroy existing backup files to prevent recovery. Therefore, you must protect backup targets with strong data isolation controls.

Megaport Collaborates With NVIDIA to Boost AI in Australia

Australia’s home-grown global automated infrastructure platform is part of a cohort of companies with Australian operations that will provide regional businesses and institutions access to NVIDIA accelerated computing and NVIDIA Nemotron open models. It’s a point of pride for all of us at Megaport that we’ve built a global automated infrastructure platform while maintaining our deep Australian roots.

What Is RPO and How Can You Reduce It to Minutes?

Learn what RPO means, how it differs from RTO, and how faster backup storage can help reduce data loss after disruption. When designing a backup and disaster recovery strategy, organizations often simply ask how quickly they can recover. But a more important question to ask is how much data they can afford to lose. Backups are only as useful as the point in time they can return you to. If a payment system fails at 2 p.m.
