Enum Class ConnectionModel
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<ConnectionModel>, Constable
How a cloud provider sells the connection a design lands on, which decides the provider-side fee.
A connection built over Equinix Fabric to a cloud is always the provider's partner (hosted) product: Fabric is the partner. The providers price that product differently from a port the customer owns outright, so the reference data keeps the two apart:
| Provider | DEDICATED_PORT | HOSTED |
|---|---|---|
| AWS | Direct Connect dedicated connection (port-hour) | Direct Connect hosted connection (port-hour by capacity) |
| Microsoft Azure | ExpressRoute Direct port (monthly) | ExpressRoute circuit, service-provider model, Standard Metered (monthly); the Fabric side of the circuit is a partner circuit |
| Google Cloud | Dedicated Interconnect circuit plus one VLAN attachment (hourly) | Partner Interconnect VLAN attachment by capacity (hourly) |
| Oracle Cloud | FastConnect port (port-hour) | FastConnect through an Oracle partner, charged the same port-hour by port speed |
