NBN Chooses Cisco Combo for Data Centers
Cisco announced today that NBN Co, the company set up by the Federal Government to design, build and operate Australia's wholesale-only, high-speed broadband network, has selected Cisco to lead the implementation of its data centre infrastructure. The solution will be deployed by Cisco and will be built upon Vblock™ technology from the Virtual Computing Environment (VCE) coalition, a collaboration of Cisco, EMC and VMware, for its next generation data centre.
Led by Cisco, the selected Vblock technology supports NBN Co's requirements for a data centre with the flexibility to scale to meet aggressive growth requirements and the business agility to rapidly roll out new services. The unique capability of the Cisco Unified Computing System™ to unite compute, network and virtualisation resources into a single cohesive system also helps NBN Co to substantially improve the energy efficiency of its data centre.
NBN Co Head of Corporate Services Mr. Kevin Brown said: "We are pleased to have acquired Cisco as our strategic supplier of our data centre, a foundation that will underpin the operation of the NBN."
