Press Release
* Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch to connect 7 Xiaomi data centers in the
Beijing region with a high-capacity, reliable and agile optical network
* The network will enable the Chinese electronics and Internet giant to
enhance its operations and offer higher-speed, higher-quality Internet
services to its subscribers
26 February 2017
Espoo, Finland - Nokia is providing Xiaomi, a leading electronics manufacture
and Internet service provider in China, with a state-of-the-art fiber optic
network to link 7 data centers in the Beijing region. The new network will
enable the fast-growing company to reduce bottlenecks in its data transport
network and bring higher-speed, lower latency Internet services to its
customers.
For this project, Nokia is providing Xiaomi with its data center interconnect
(DCI) solution, based on the company's 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) and
managed by the Network Services Platform. The 1830 PSS is a high-performance
Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) platform that delivers the
capacity, security and control required for enterprise data center networks.
Nokia's DCI solution is enabling Xiaomi to tie together its data centers to
effectively establish a private cloud that it can use to support its internal
data management needs.
This agreement builds on Nokia's substantial track-record providing DCI
solutions to large enterprises such as financial institutions, healthcare
providers and 'webscale' companies. The project also highlights the growing
momentum behind Nokia's strategy to expand its customer base to organizations
outside of the traditional telecommunications sphere.
Drazen Lukic, head of China IP and Optical Networks Business Group at Nokia,
said: "As large enterprises in China and around the world look to take advantage
of the benefits of private cloud, Nokia's data center interconnect solution
offers an ideal way of bringing together geographically distributed assets to
form a single, high-performance cloud. This initiative is enabling Xiaomi to
maximize network capacity, address fast-growing traffic demands and enjoy the
flexibility of the cloud with the security, reliability and performance of a
private network."
