Red Hat last week announced that several CSPs across the globe have chosen Red Hat to help them modernize networks in order to better meet the challenges of an incredibly competitive, evolving and growing marketplace.
Red Hat said its open hybrid cloud technologies provide the foundation and capabilities that many service providers require to virtualize and containerize their networks, enabling the faster delivery of new and innovative applications and services.
These implementations include:
HKT, Hong Kong’s premier telecommunications service provider and a leading innovator, realized quickly that the COVID-19 pandemic would accelerate enterprise digital transformation. To better meet this moment, HKT worked with Red Hat to diversify and expand the services on its unified online shopping platform, Club Shopping, built on Red Hat OpenShift.
Proximus, Belgium’s largest telecommunications provider, sought to replace a costly legacy network environment with a more flexible, scalable network functions virtualization (NFV) approach. By standardizing its NFV strategy on Red Hat OpenStack Platform supported by Red Hat Ceph Storage, Proximus can now run critical service functions in a cost-effective, scalable way, lowering associated costs by 20%.
Telecom Argentina has reached out to Red Hat for a scalable and more stable Kubernetes-based solution. Red Hat OpenShift is helping Telecom Argentina modernize Flow, its digital-based entertainment platform, that offers live content and on demand TV series and shows, movies, games and music.
