tcp ties up with Juniper Networks

Juniper Networks has announced that tcp cloud, a provider of cloud computing in the Czech Republic, has deployed Juniper Networks Contrail controller for software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV) to improve automation and orchestration in its physical and virtual infrastructures. With Juniper Networks Contrail, tcp cloud can now build high-density private cloud solutions for its customers in one week versus six weeks, greatly accelerating the value tcp cloud can deliver for its customers.

"tcp cloud is on the forefront of providing innovative virtualized cloud services to its customers in the Czech Republic and neighboring countries. The network tcp cloud has built using Juniper's MetaFabric architecture with the Contrail SDN controller will give tcp cloud the agility it needs to deliver solutions quickly and at scale for its customers," said Ankur Singla, Corporate Vice President and General Manager, Cloud Software, Juniper Networks

The deployment of Juniper Networks Contrail exceeded expectations during the proof of concept (PoC) trial. The implementation was done in conjunction with the company's existing use of Juniper Networks MetaFabric architecture, a reference architecture for next generation data centers that simplifies and accelerates deployment and delivery of applications within and across multiple data center locations. With Contrail, tcp cloud experienced a significant boost in network performance by increasing bandwidth from 4 Gigabits to 15 Gigabits, and added the ability to quickly customize and change the architecture design as necessary. Additionally, Juniper's use of open standards and open protocols enabled tcp cloud to build a reliable and fully automated open cloud solution in the existing multivendor environment, which is critical to meet the company's customer demands.
