@Ericsson ’s recent deal with @Swisscom in launching a #cloud platform for the Swiss telecommunication operator involved network components from @PluribusNetworks. According to @StevenShalita, vice president of marketing and business development at Pluribus, those components are vital to the deployment.
As a quick recap, Ericsson last week made good on a previously announced deal with Swisscom to launch a cloud-based enterprise service. That platform was described as a full-stack cloud deployment that takes advantage of software-defined networking (#SDN) and network functions virtualization ( #NFV).
The platform details included use of Ericsson’s #CloudManager, #CloudExecution Environment, #CloudSDN, #Hyperscale Datacenter System (HDS) 8000, and professional services.
Daniel Staub, head of Swisscom’s Joint Mobile Group, in a statement said that it will target businesses tied to 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT).
“Our first service is now live, servicing the small and medium enterprise market, and we will continue to work closely with Ericsson to onboard other services in the immediate future,” Staub said in a statement.
As part of its architecture (pictured below), Ericsson notes that Pluribus provides the networking component to the HDS 8000 product. Shalita said Pluribus’ Netvisor OS and Adaptive Cloud Fabric architecture are also part of the picture.
