NTT i3 Collaborates With Dimension Data–s Internet Solutions and Intel to Deliver CloudWAN to Global Enterprise Companies

PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 04/05/17 — NTT Innovation Institute Inc. (), the prominent Silicon Valley innovation center for NTT Group, one of the world–s largest ICT companies, and (IS), a pan-African telecoms service provider to public and private sector organizations that has been providing innovative end-to-end telco solutions and related services for more than 20 years, announced today that they are collaborating with Intel Corporation on the delivery of .

As a new intelligent technology fabric, CloudWAN enables the radical responsiveness and unparalleled efficiency needed by enterprise companies as they grow their global footprint and accompanying IT infrastructure. With a platform that enables organizations to better address network costs, complexity and control, there can be an acceleration in the next wave of innovative technologies that businesses can develop, deploy and use in the way they work and interact with customers every day.

CloudWAN enables organizations to effectively and efficiently scale and evolve to respond to business changes across the full technology stack, combining both SD-WAN (Software defined private network) and NFV (Network Function Virtualization) into one environment that delivers better visibility and control of the entire network ecosystem. When market and standards shift, CloudWAN–s open ecosystem also provides long-term flexibility and agility for technology to accompany business changes.

By coupling NTT i3–s CloudWAN SD-Wan controller and ecosystem with Intel–s next-generation server chips on the all-new Purley platform, CloudWAN effectively gives businesses an accelerated path to the agile deployment and management of software at the edge of their network. With CloudWAN, Intel provides the silicon for the high performing boxes essential to software defined networks.

CloudWAN–s single console unifies the previously disparate management of network infrastructure, function, and applications. This enables IT departments to proactively plan for network needs, while also pragmatically managing their existing infrastructure investments. Similarly, enterprise cloud operators running a wide range of traditional enterprise applications from multiple vendors or cloud-native workloads can flexibly consolidate their application silos into .

“With the , NTT i3 enables organizations of all sizes to grow with the speed and flexibility that a global business demands. Together with IS and Intel, we help enterprises reduce their networking costs by providing them with a choice to connect through less costly links and dynamically manage reliability, latency and speed,” said Ravi Srivatsav, Managing Director, NTT i3.

According to Greg Montjoie, Head of Internet Access/SDN at Internet Solutions, “For Internet Solutions having an open ecosystem available to develop an adaptable platform that can morph to the rapidly developing technology changes and market needs is critical to our success. Leveraging coupled with Intel–s compute at the edge of our network allow us to take a high speed, reliable enterprise service to our base.”

“It is critical that Internet Solutions provides its clients with a high performance, resilient service. Having Intel as a partner brings the stability and performance they are looking for to deliver a world class ecosystem to its clients,” stated Avi Mistry, Intel Corporation–s Global Account Manager. “Having an open ecosystem available to develop an adaptable platform that can morph to rapidly developing technology changes and market needs is critical.
