The solution that provides a private, dedicated connection offering enhanced bandwidth and more consistent network performance is Direct Connect. This service provides a physical connection for large data transfers, offering reduced network costs compared to utilizing the public internet and increasing security by not traversing public networks. A VPN solution, while encrypting data in transit, still operates over the public internet and may not provide the same level of network performance and cost efficiency for large, ongoing data transfers. Choosing to transmit data over the public internet would not fulfill the requirement to bypass public networks, and simply utilizing a cloud-based private network does not imply a dedicated physical connection to the cloud infrastructure nor the avoidance of the public internet.
