Intel Accelerates Industry’s Transition to Cloud-Ready Communications Networks

New Products and Ecosystem Collaborations Will Help the Industry Modernize Today’s Networks and Build the Foundation for 5G

NEWS HIGHLIGHTS

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 9, 2015 — Intel Corporation announced today new products and collaborations to accelerate the move toward more agile and cloud-ready communications networks that can address today’s demand for new telecommunications, cloud and data center services and handle tomorrow’s devices and services.

Billions of devices are becoming connected – from smartphones to cars to factories – and that brings new use cases and service opportunities that drive unprecedented growth in network and storage demands. Today’s networks are not designed in a way that allows communications providers to quickly or cost effectively expand their infrastructure. To realize the potential of the Internet of Things (IoT) and enhance mobile computing experiences, communications networks need to be re-architected, with increased programmability and built-in flexibility throughout the infrastructure to handle the anticipated increase in volume and complexity of data traffic.

“Networks are facing extraordinary demands as more devices become connected and new digital services are offered,” said Sandra Rivera, vice president, Data Center Group and general manager, Network Platforms Group, Intel. “Building intelligence throughout the communications infrastructure and using a standards-based approach offers service providers the foundation to build agile, cloud-ready networks that allow them to expand their services capabilities.”

Intel Expands Ecosystem, Product Portfolio to Lay Foundation for Cloud-Ready Networks

Intel is working closely with industry leaders, including Cisco*, SK Telecom* and Verizon*, to accelerate the move toward more flexible and responsive networks today and to lay the foundation for future 5G networks. Intel offers cutting-edge technology that increases network capabilities and bandwidth and is growing an ecosystem to deliver standards-based solutions. Intel announced:
