Nokia’s Nuage Networks to power China Mobile Cloud’s
massive public cloud expansion
13 April 2021
Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced that China Mobile
Cloud, the subsidiary of the leading mobile telecom provider
China Mobile, will leverage the Nuage Networks end-to-end SDN
solution for nationwide deployment of its public cloud
service.
Nokia’s Nuage Networks Virtualized Cloud Services (VCS) solution
will provide advanced network automation across networks and clouds
of all sizes — allowing customers to build fully isolated and
secure virtual private clouds (VPCs) that connect to other VPCs,
the internet and enterprise data centers.
Nokia has worked closely with China Mobile Cloud since 2015 —
with both China Mobile Cloud’s public and private cloud services
running on Nuage’s SDN solution — continuously developing features
and improving system architecture for the growing demand of cloud
service.
Nokia’s Nuage Networks VCS can support a massive number of
virtual machines (VM) and bare metal services (BM) in the same
network with full policy control. The flexible architecture also
allows direct connectivity between the end points without going
through gateways, which can quickly become bottlenecks in a cloud
environment.
Markus Bochert, President of Nokia Greater China,
said: “As China Mobile Cloud’s strategic partner, we’re
very honored to be part of China Mobile Cloud’s public cloud
deployment. With Nokia’s Nuage SDN portfolio and our customized
service, we’re confident to support China Mobile Cloud to pursue
its goal in the cloud era.”
Sunil Khandekar, CEO of Nokia’s Nuage Networks,
said: “Contributing to this service for the region
presents immense opportunity for Nokia with the rapid growth of
China Mobile Cloud. We developed the network solution together with
customers to ensure it was suitable for China Mobile Cloud’s
expansion of its public cloud application. By deploying our SDN
solution, China Mobile Cloud’s customers will have the ability to
create highly secure and dynamic virtual networks.”
Nokia’s Nuage Networks Virtualized Cloud Services (VCS) solution
includes an SDN controller, software switch, SDN gateway, firewall,
load balancer and VPN, and will provide:
- Inter-virtual
private cloud (VPC) connectivity in different data centers for
fault tolerance and to locate applications closer to the end
users
- Data Center
Interconnection (DCI) that is fully automated by the Nuage
platform
- Firewall as a
Service (FWaaS) to secure the critical cloud workloads
- Bare Metal as a
Service (BMaaS) for non-virtualized workloads and workloads needing
access to physical hardware
