PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 10/24/16 — NTT Innovation Institute Inc. (NTT i3), the prominent Silicon Valley innovation center for NTT Group, one of the world–s largest ICT companies, announced today the beta launch of Project CloudWAN at the in New York City.
An intelligent technology fabric, NTT i3–s enables organizations to effectively and efficiently scale and evolve in order to respond to business changes across the full technology stack. Project CloudWAN is explicitly built for the disruption economy, allowing highly agile enterprises to rapidly and seamlessly take action in response to fast changing markets with networks which are responsive and unified.
The rise of globalization has necessitated the mandate to increase the speed of doing business. Presently, IT professionals are limited by legacy technology practices optimized purely for the management of rigid silos. However, current technology environments need to be focused on the complex multi-vendor approach to Cloud, SaaS, PaaS, Open Source and the importance of apps — thus necessitating a solution to streamline complex networks across various business units and adapt to the ever-changing corporate environment.
“With Project CloudWAN, NTT i3 is enabling organizations of all sizes to grow with the speed and flexibility that a global business demands. 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. “Our aim is to enable enterprises to reduce wide area networking (WAN) spend, lower technology costs, reduce administration complexity, and increase business productivity. We plan to deliver this through NTT Group–s global operating companies who serve as trusted advisors to their customers across five continents.”
Project CloudWAN unifies disparate network deployments by supporting management of infrastructure, network function, and applications from a single console and enabling IT managers 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 one universal data infrastructure.
