AWS announced general availability of AWS Interconnect - multicloud, offering customers simple, scalable private network connections from AWS VPCs to external cloud service providers. Google Cloud is the initial launch partner, with Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure planned later in 2026.

This fully managed service reduces complexity associated with multicloud networking and enables rapid scaling and integration with AWS networking services like Transit Gateway. A single-fee pricing model and a free local 500 Mbps connection per Region facilitate adoption. Available in five AWS Regions at launch, the service supports connections via console, CLI, API, and open-source partner adoption via GitHub.
