Philippine fiber and technology solutions provider Converge ICT Solutions will use Noki’as Data Center Fabric solution, a switching platform composed of both hardware and software. This is to future-proof its new data centres in the Philippines by using AI and automation technology.
The solution is expected to enable Converge to enhance network performance, scalability and efficiency while improving service agility. Converge will also be able to ensure sovereign cloud readiness for regulatory compliance.
“As Converge and many forward-looking technology companies increasingly host AI applications, we need to ensure there is seamless integration with traditional applications,” said Converge CEO and co-founder Dennis Anthony Uy.
“We see AI workloads and high-performance computing (HPC) becoming an essential part of our operations so we’re prepping our data center networks to be designed for extreme scalability and reliability,” said Uy.
Converge expects to be able to ensure more sustainable operations by using automation to reduce energy consumption. Nokia’s Data Center Fabric solution helps address the growing demands of AI-driven workloads.
“The use of automation and AI will enable us to ensure regulatory compliance and to enhance network operations to gain a business edge,” said Paulo Martin Santos, chief network transformation officer at Converge.
“With this collaboration with Converge, we are looking forward to playing a bigger role in the Philippines’ growing data center industry. Our solutions are designed to empower data center operators, like Converge, to leverage AI-powered automation to ensure unmatched reliability and scalability to prepare the digital infrastructure for the future,” said Kent Wong, Nokia VP and head of IP Networks in the Asia-Pacific region.
