Colo-Connect leverages the cloud-native GCP interconnect technology to provide high-bandwidth service connections to your private applications. Colo-Connect coexists with the existing IPSec tunnel-based service connections, so if you need to provide private app access to smaller data centers that don’t require high-bandwidth throughput, you could also use service connections to those data centers. Gain visibility into your Colo-Connect deployment by viewing metrics such as the number of Colo-Connect links and status, throughput trends, and individual tunnel, connection, and link details. By viewing data about your Colo-Connect service connections, you can get an overall picture of the health and connectivity of your deployment.
