Connecting You to Cloud Service Providers Through ACE Connect
Experience fast, reliable, and secure access to top cloud platforms with ACE Connect, the dedicated connectivity service from AIMS.
ACE Connect provides a dedicated, private link between your data centre and major Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure, enabling secure and reliable multi-cloud connectivity. By bypassing the public internet, it helps lower network costs, increase bandwidth, and deliver more consistent performance.
This private interconnection enhances security and simplifies compliance with data sovereignty and regulatory requirements, while improving application performance and overall user experience.
Experience the Difference with Direct Cloud Connectivity
Reduce latency, optimise cloud costs, and gain greater control over your data transfers through a secure, private connection to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
Why ACE Connect Matters
Most businesses access cloud services through the public internet, exposing them to latency and security risks. With ACE Connect, your traffic is routed through a private, direct connection to CSPs, bypassing the public web to deliver faster, more secure data transfers and improved cost efficiency.
When combined with AIMS’ inter-data centre network, enterprises can build resilient and
Seamless Access
Low Latency
Enables faster data transfers and a more responsive application experience.
Increase Bandwidth
Higher bandwidth supports quicker uploads, downloads, and large-scale data transfers.
Consistent Network Performance
Eliminates unpredictable delays and service disruptions for mission-critical operations.
ACE Connect supports enterprise applications such as ERP, financial trading platforms, AI/ML pipelines, and data-intensive workloads where performance consistency is vital.
Secured Connection
Private and Secured Connections
Lowers the risk of interception or unauthorised access.
Reduce Security Risk
Direct connection streamlines security management and reduces your attack surface.
This isolation enhances security and supports enterprises in meeting regulatory and compliance requirements, including frameworks such as ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and PDPA.
Cost Optimisation
Lower Data Transfer Costs

FAQs About ACE Connect
1. What cloud platforms can I connect to with ACE Connect?
ACE Connect supports direct connections to major CSPs, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, with options for other regional providers through the AIMS Cloud Exchange.
2. How is ACE Connect different from a VPN or public Internet access?
Unlike VPNs, ACE Connect uses a private physical connection that provides consistent bandwidth, lower latency, and greater security, which is ideal for hybrid and multi-cloud architectures.
3. Can ACE Connect help meet compliance and ESG goals?
Yes. By ensuring data remains within AIMS’s Tier III facilities in Malaysia, ACE Connect helps enterprises meet PDPA, ESG, and sustainability reporting standards.
4. Does ACE Connect integrate with AIMS’ Managed Services or Disaster Recovery offerings?
Absolutely. ACE Connect works seamlessly with AIMS’ Managed Network Services and Disaster Recovery Services to deliver an end-to-end solution for connectivity, protection, and operational resilience.
5. Is ACE Connect scalable for future AI or data-intensive workloads?
Yes. AIMS infrastructure supports high-density GPU servers and multi-cloud integration, allowing enterprises to scale securely as AI adoption grows.
6. How quickly can ACE Connect be deployed for my organisation?
Deployment timelines depend on your existing setup and preferred CSPs. Since ACE Connect operates within AIMS Data Centre’s carrier-neutral ecosystem, provisioning is typically faster than standard leased lines. You can coordinate setup directly through AIMS Support Services for end-to-end deployment assistance.
7. Is ACE Connect suitable for hybrid and multi-cloud strategies?
Yes. ACE Connect was designed for hybrid and multi-cloud deployments. It allows a single private connection to access multiple CSPs simultaneously through ACE Connect, making it ideal for enterprises using AWS, Azure, GCP, or regional cloud providers.
8. How does ACE Connect improve data security compared to public internet access?
Public internet paths are shared and vulnerable to interception or DDoS attacks. ACE Connect uses dedicated, private routing that never traverses the open web. This helps meet regulatory frameworks such as ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and Malaysia’s PDPA compliance requirements.
9. Can ACE Connect help reduce the total cost of ownership for cloud operations?
Yes. By bypassing public internet and optimising bandwidth usage, ACE Connect reduces egress charges and minimises the need for expensive VPN infrastructure. Paired with AIMS’ Managed Data Management and Backup solutions, enterprises achieve long-term cost control and predictable budgeting.
10. Is ACE Connect available across multiple AIMS locations in Southeast Asia?
Yes. ACE Connect operates through AIMS’ interconnected facilities in Kuala Lumpur, Cyberjaya, and Bangkok, ensuring regional coverage and low-latency routing within the ASEAN region. Learn more about the AIMS Points of Presence (PoP) across Southeast Asia.
