Learn what continuous data protection is, how it reduces data loss, and how it supports lower recovery point objectives. Table of Contents A backup can complete exactly as scheduled and still leave you with more data loss than your business can tolerate. Imagine this scenario. Your business database is backed up at midnight every night – but one afternoon, it fails at 4 p.m. Everything written in the 16 hours leading up to this failure falls outside your latest recovery point.

AWS Interconnect is coming to Megaport, giving enterprises and AI infrastructure providers another way to scale private AWS connectivity with automation, encryption, and built-in resilience. Megaport customers just got a new AWS connectivity option, and it fits perfectly with how we’ve always believed infrastructure should work: direct, automated, resilient, and easier to operate.

Portugal’s data center growth and direct routes to Brazil are reshaping Atlantic connectivity — and it’s the newest country to join Megaport’s ecosystem. Portugal has been subtly building one of the most interesting connectivity ecosystems in Europe.

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.

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”.

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.

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.
