SAN JOSE, Calif. September 29, 2014 Cisco today announced that more than 30 additional companies, including Deutsche Telekom (DT), BT, NTT DATA, and Equinix, have added their support to the Intercloud the worldwide network of interconnected clouds that Cisco and its partners are rapidly developing to enable a new generation of standardized cloud applications and the proliferation of highly secure hybrid clouds.
Today's news will expand the reach of the Intercloud by 250 additional data centers in 50 countries, and advances Cisco's plan to address customer requirements for a globally distributed, highly secure cloud platform capable of meeting the robust demands of the Internet of Everything. Designed for high-value application workloads, with real-time analytics and near infinite scalability, Ciscos open approach to the Intercloud allows local hosting and local provider options that enable data sovereignty.
Since we announced our OpenStack-based cloud strategy six months ago, we've received tremendous industry-wide support. The strategy is gaining momentum in the open source community and providing partners with a powerful cloud platform with global reach, and Internet scale and efficiencies, said Rob Lloyd, Cisco's president of development and sales. Just as Cisco played a leading role in connecting isolated islands of LANs to architect the modern Internet, Cisco's Intercloud Fabric and Application Centric Infrastructure innovations uniquely position us to connect disparate cloud services to unlock the full potential of cloud, and with it a new era in IT.
Cisco, the leader in private cloud infrastructure technology, also announced that it will begin offering a hybrid cloud service and that Cisco Intercloud Fabric, a highly secure, open, and flexible hypervisor-agnostic cloud interconnect technology, is now shipping to customers.
Editor's Note: Cisco will be joined by DT, BT and Equinix in a web news conference Monday, September 29, at 7:30 a.m. PDT to discuss all of these developments. Click here to register.
Deutsche Telekom and Cisco to Develop German and European Clouds, Address Data Sovereignty
Deutsche Telekom (DT) and Cisco announced that the two companies will expand their partnership by deploying Intercloud nodes within DT's state-of-the-art data centers in Germany, which will be operated by T-Systems, the system solutions unit of DT. T-Systems will deliver sovereign and secure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offerings that meet Germany's strict data protection standards to business customers throughout the European region.
Deutsche Telekom's new Intercloud infrastructure, based on OpenStack to allow DT to standardize and scale their services globally, will incorporate Cisco's suite of cloud solutions, including Cisco Intercloud Fabric and Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI), which includes Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches and the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC). Together, these advanced technologies will provide DT with a robust and holistic Intercloud architecture with centralized automation and policy-driven application profiles.
BT to Deploy Cisco Intercloud Fabric to Drive Hybrid Cloud Adoption
BT and Cisco will expand their longstanding cloud partnering in delivering leading cloud solutions to the market. BT will leverage Cisco Intercloud Fabric to develop hybrid cloud services that connect with the Cisco Cloud and with the cloud and managed service offerings of Cisco Powered Intercloud Providers. The BT Cloud Compute infrastructure, with a global data centre footprint spanning 20 countries on five continents, will become fully Intercloud enabled to support highly secure, global hybrid clouds with unparalleled workload portability for BT's customers.
BT Cloud Compute is a pre-provisioned data centre infrastructure that enables customers to create, deploy, monitor and manage their own cloud service. It integrates advanced Cisco technologies and is available in major economies across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific. Cloud Compute uses local infrastructure in key regions, allowing customers to meet national compliance and assurance requirements and to communicate and contract under the jurisdiction of the local law. With its adoption of Cisco Intercloud Fabric, BT is at the forefront of the realities of enabling hybrid cloud today on a global
