Amazon announced cloud customers can provision private, high-speed connectivity between Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure on demand through AWS Interconnect – multicloud. With Azure connectivity now in Public Preview, AWS Interconnect – multicloud spans all three non-AWS major cloud service providers (CSPs) – Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Interconnect was introduced at AWS re:Invent in 2025 as a collaboration between AWS and Google Cloud using an open API specification. In April 2026, AWS added Oracle as a partner and said it was also planning to work with Microsoft.
AWS Interconnect – multicloud Preview with Azure is available today in US East (N. Virginia), US West (N. California), Asia Pacific (Sydney), and Europe (Frankfurt).
AWS and Microsoft will continue to expand regional availability, increase bandwidth options, and deepen the experience based on customer feedback. The open specification remains available for additional providers who are interested in joinging Interconnect.
