Google and Amazon have introduced a joint venture to launch multicloud networking services for faster connectivity service on Sunday, November 30, 2025.
Both companies expressed that they have collaborated for this initiative to meet growing demand for reliable connectivity at a time when even brief internet disruptions can cause major outages.
Google, the world’s biggest search engine and the world’s leading e-commerce platform Amazon believes that this new collaboration will provide fast connectivity and enable customers to establish private and high-speed links between both companies in minutes instead of weeks.
The two cloud providers explained that this new offering will combine Amazon Web Services AWS Interconnect-multicloud with Google Cloud’s Cross-Cloud Interconnect to improve network interoperability.
Vice president network services Robert Kennedy said, “This collaboration between AWS and Google Cloud represents a fundamental shift in multicloud connectivity.”
Amazon’s vice president Rob Enns and the general manager of cloud networking at Google Cloud informed that the joint network is intended to make it easier for customers to move data and applications between clouds.
By quoting the example, they mentioned that Salesforce is among the early users of the new approach.
Moreover, the new multicloud service was being unveiled soon, over a month after an AWS services outage on October 20, 2025, disrupted thousands of websites worldwide, knocking some of the internet’s most popular apps, including Snapchat and Reddit, offline.
According to analytics firm Parametrix, the estimated loss from that outage cost US companies between US$500 million (S$648 million) and US$650 million.
AWS provides computing power, data storage and other digital services to governments, other companies and individuals as the world’s largest cloud provider, followed by cloud computing services Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud.
With reference to that, Amazon’s cloud business delivered robust growth in the third quarter, generating $33 billion in revenue; more than double of Google’s $15.16 billion.
Additionally, tech companies including Alphabet, Microsoft and Amazon are investing billions to build infrastructure that can handle surging internet traffic with the growing demands of artificial intelligence AI as the need for computing power to support these services accelerates.
