NTT Com announces NFV-based cloud services
The ICT solutions arm of Japanese incumbent operator NTT, NTT Com, has launched what it says is the first suite of cloud services that enterprise customers can activate themselves and pay for on a per-usage basis. NTT Com said the new services will enable enterprises to eliminate lengthy contract tie-ins, and establish new offices or short-term project support with minimal fuss.The services are built on a Network Functions Virtualization platform developed by Virtela Technology Services, which NTT Com acquired in January this year, and will be launched commercially in July.
