Yahoo Japan deploys Metro WDM from Transmode
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stockholm, Sweden - 14 July 2015 - Transmode, a global supplier of packet
optical networking solutions, today announced that Yahoo Japan, a major Japanese
Internet company, has deployed Transmode's 10G Metro WDM. The new high-speed
optical interconnection is designed to handle the increased capacity between key
nodes that provide connection to both Yahoo Japan's data centers and their
service provider customer base.
Yahoo Japan is one of the largest and most innovative internet providers in
Japan, and due to its ongoing success is currently enjoying increased traffic
from both residential and business services. This in turn is driving the need
for extra capacity between its data center facilities. At these data centers
there is a huge number of servers and both space and power are limited, so
Transmode's TM-Series solution with its small footprint and low power
consumption is ideally suited to the task.
The new deployments provide connectivity between key nodes in the Yahoo Japan
network. Yahoo Japan's customers connect into the Yahoo Japan network at these
nodes to gain access to services and data hosted within Yahoo Japan's data
centers.
Nobuhiro Takasawa, VP, Technical Director, System Management Group at Yahoo
Japan, commented, "We were looking for a solution which had a small footprint,
low power consumption and which offered flexible design from low to high-
capacity and would enable us to dynamically expand network-capacity when
required. Transmode's TM-Series met these demands but, most importantly, its
Enlighten management system is simple to understand and enables easier day-to
day operation."
The solution was selected not only for its small foot print and low power design
but also because it was the most cost effective solution, while maintaining the
highest standards of quality and reliability. The network deployment has now
been in place for some months and its performance has been totally reliable and
stable.
Mark Stevens, Transmode's Vice President Asia Pacific, commented, "We are
delighted that Yahoo Japan has deployed our TM-Series to connect its data
centers. This installation shows how versatile our optical platforms are and
that ease of management and low power consumption are vital features of most
networks today. Significant credit has to be given to our local partner ITOCHU
Techno-Solutions Corporation in securing this business."
