Placing a IZO™+ Multi Cloud Connect Direct Order

This page starts the TC^x Portal order for a IZO™+ Multi Cloud Connect Direct connection – a private-MPLS first mile – through product selection, Fabric Port and the Virtual Cloud Connection. At the Virtual Cloud Connection step you continue on your respective cloud service provider page (as the configuration varies cloud to cloud), which completes the order and the cloud-side setup as one continuous flow.

What this is

IZO™+ Multi Cloud Connect Direct delivers your cloud connection over a private MPLS first mile on the Tata Communications network. This page walks the cloud-agnostic part of the order; at the Virtual Cloud Connection step you branch to your target cloud and finish there. If you are ordering the internet-first-mile service instead, see Placing Your IZO™+ Multi Cloud Connect First Flex Order. For the difference between the two, see Service Models Compared.

Before you start

Complete the Pre-requisites Checklist and Account Setup and IAM, and have the TC^x Portal Walkthrough to hand. You will also need the target cloud's account identifier, which you enter at the Virtual Cloud Connection step (for example, your AWS Account ID or an Azure ExpressRoute service key).

Step 1 – Product Selection

From the sidebar, open Orders to reach the Order Tracking screen, then click New Order (top-right). On the Product page, locate IZO™+ Multi Cloud Connect and click Buy. Select the Legal Entity the service will be contracted under (based on where cloud connectivity is required), then Continue.

Step 2 – Cloud On-ramp Location

Click the Filter icon, set the Cloud Provider and MCC Flavor = Direct, and Apply. Select the location on the map, then choose the Data Center Location. This sets where the Virtual Cloud Connection terminates.

Step 3 – Solution Design

Select

Direct Cloud Connectivity,
then the specific pattern
- for a single direct link, Direct Connectivity Between Customer Premises to Public Cloud
- for dual, the Dual Direct Connectivity Between Customer Premises to Public Cloud variant.

Click Next
Enter a Solution Name.

Step 4 – Fabric Port Configuration

Double-click the Fabric Port icon and complete the fields, then Save and Validate.

If there are any issues, relevant error messages will be displayed.
If all details are correct, a confirmation pop‑up will appear stating “Component validation successful."

Step 5: Virtual Cloud Connection: choose your cloud

At the Virtual Cloud Connection step, select your target cloud service provider. The Virtual Cloud Connection fields, order completion and the cloud-side setup are specific to each provider and continue on that cloud's page as one flow – follow the page for your cloud:

Your cloud provider specific page carries the checkout and Get Network Config steps, so you complete the order there without returning to this page.
