Smartfren, one of Indonesia’s leading telecom operators with more than 20 million active subscribers has selected Cisco as its preferred digitization partner to create a multi-cloud architecture.
The project will entail the creation of a digital services data center architecture in Indonesia with cloud computing, managed services, and cloud services integrated. Smartfren has initiated a digitization campaign to transform their data center and offer enhanced Cloud services for Enterprise customers.
The solution selected by Smartfren is the Cisco Multi-Cloud architecture, including Cisco ACI and Cisco UCS. Cisco ACI, the industry’s leading software-defined networking (SDN) solution, provides seamless connectivity, automated configuration, and unified policy across on-premise and public cloud data centers. Designed for secure multitenancy, it enables Smartfren to provide business customers with a true private cloud experience on a shared infrastructure, with support for business continuity and disaster recovery. Cisco UCS delivers the highly elastic, API-driven computing platform required for Smartfren’s cloud services vision.
Cisco automates the integration of multiple on-premise / public cloud deployments, enabling Smartfren to apply consistent security, service chaining, governance, and compliance through a common application policy.
