    NEC announces Cloud Platform Suite for carriers

    -

    NEC today announced the launch of its IT and network integration package, the Cloud Platform Suite, in support of cloud computing services for telecommunications carriers.

    The new package provides an infrastructure for carrier cloud computing which includes virtualized servers, data storage, networking equipment, software and solutions with integrated operation management systems. Shipments of the Cloud Platform Suite are scheduled to begin in late February 2010.

    "In recent years, as the opportunities for cloud services have expanded, carriers placed greater emphasis on the consideration of a cloud computing platform," said Toshiyuki Mineno, Senior Vice President, NEC.  "NEC's Cloud Platform Suite represents a key building block to its next-generation network solutions, including femtocell and LTE, which provide essential integrated solutions to the complex needs of telecommunications carriers."

    NEC's Cloud Platform Suite will feature an additional option, the Programmable Flow Switch and Controller, which will deliver efficiency and visualization to data center networks and be available by the end of March 2011.
