Connect with GNX Through Fabric Marketplace: When to Use it and What to Expect
The Challenge:
Organizations extending connectivity between Equinix and branch locations, retail sites, factories, or other edge environments often need to source last-mile services from multiple local providers. Comparing coverage, pricing, lead times, and service options across different markets can be time-consuming and operationally complex, particularly when managing deployments across multiple countries.
A Better Approach:
GNX is now available through Fabric Marketplace, giving customers access to GNX+, an automated, carrier-neutral platform for sourcing and managing last-mile connectivity. Customers can compare provider options, request quotes, place orders, and manage services through a centralized experience.
With access to more than 3,000 network service providers across 190+ countries, GNX helps simplify the process of extending Equinix Fabric connectivity to enterprise locations around the world. By bringing provider discovery, quoting, ordering, and lifecycle management together in a single platform, customers can reduce the complexity of sourcing last-mile connectivity across diverse geographic markets.

- When sourcing last-mile connectivity across multiple countries or regions
