Core offering

Megaport provides on-demand, software-defined private connectivity through a global Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform spanning 1,100+ data centers across 26-31 countries. Customers provision Virtual Cross Connects (VXCs), Layer 3 routing, SD-WAN edge, internet exchange peering, and now compute (via Latitude.sh) and storage services via API, Terraform, or portal in under 60 seconds, eliminating traditional telco procurement timelines.

Product overview

Megaport operates a unified automated infrastructure platform providing compute, network, and storage services from a single system. The platform is built around Megaport's core Network as a Service (NaaS) offering, which provides software-defined private connectivity across a global network fabric spanning 1,100+ data centers in 31 countries. Following the November 2025 acquisition of Latitude.sh, the platform expanded to include compute services (CPU-as-a-Service, GPU-as-a-Service, Virtual Machines, and Bare Metal infrastructure) offered under the Latitude.sh brand. In June 2026, Megaport launched its Storage product, completing the compute-network-storage trifecta with object, block, and file storage featuring up to 100G connectivity and zero egress fees. Additional offerings include security services (DDoS Protection, Firewall as a Service, IPsec Tunnels), routing solutions (Megaport Cloud Router, Megaport Virtual Edge), internet exchange services (MegaIX, expanded via Extreme IX acquisition), and specialized exchanges (Financial Services Exchange, Voice and Video Exchange). The AI Exchange platform provides connectivity to GPU resources for AI workloads, while the MCP Server enables AI agent interaction with network infrastructure.
