NTT Com India–Netmagic today announced a partnership with Nuage Networks, a Nokia venture focused on Software Defined Networks (SDN), to enhance its network as a service (NaaS) portfolio, based on its software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) solution. 
 
SD-WAN service enables enterprises to automatically route and optimise network traffic and gain visibility of applications performance without spending more on bandwidth.
 
NTT Com India–Netmagic will deploy Nuage’s Virtualised Network Services (VNS) solution at their data centres across the country.
 
Once deployed, NTT Com India–Netmagic’s enterprise customers will experience more flexibility through automation and will be able to maximise the advantages of cloud, the two companies said in a joint statement.
  
The deployment will also enable NTT Com India–Netmagic to offer advanced security services.
 
SD-WAN  is independent of the type of network – wireless, wireline networks or the public internet or, whether the applications are hosted in data centers or on public clouds.
 
This will also help enterprises’ branch offices to route traffic to the internet where a more expensive MPLS line is not necessary.
 
“We are extremely delighted to partner with Nuage Networks from Nokia to further enhance our portfolio of dynamic network services,” said Sharad Sanghi, MD & CEO, Netmagic (an NTT Communications Company). 
 
“We aim to deliver innovative and agile SD-WAN services to global and Indian enterprises, and also to global MNCs having their offices in India looking to connect their remote users quickly and securely to applications in private and public clouds.”
 
Sunil Khandekar, Nuage Networks CEO and founder, said, “We are excited to partner with NTT Com India–Netmagic to enable businesses with the benefits of automation, agility and operational simplicity. It is a testimony to our innovative product that NTT Com India–Netmagic chose our solution after a long and exhaustive selection process.”
