Not every network challenge is symmetric.
Tape Ark’s data flows aren’t like most. Their upload traffic out of Perth dwarfs download by 9 to 1 - creating a unique architecture problem:
How do you push massive, consistent volumes of legacy tape data into multi-cloud environments without hitting a bandwidth wall?
Nexthop delivered a tailored solution:
- Dedicated dark fibre
- Direct peering into Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud
- Upload-optimised network design
“Everything about working with Nexthop was easy - from tailoring the design to rollout and ongoing adjustments. Nothing was ever too hard or ‘not possible.’ This partnership gives us the confidence to accept jobs of any size into Perth, knowing bandwidth is no longer a bottleneck.”
- Jeremy Nottle, SVP, IT Innovation & Strategy, Tape Ark | Global Experts in Tape to Cloud Migration
The result:
Zero bottlenecks. Predictable high-capacity performance. Multi-cloud readiness - from Perth to anywhere.
