Data Center ConneX™ Solution is a bundled product including NoviFlow Network Switches, an Open Source SDN Controller, and CloudSmartz' On-Demand Software Portal and Integration
ROCHESTER, N.Y. - Oct. 30, 2018 - PRLog -- CloudSmartz, a leading lifecycle service and customer orchestration solution provider enabling digital transformation, and NoviFlow® Inc, a global vendor of high-performance SDN network operating software (NOS), cybersecurity middleware and programmable network solutions, today announced a joint solution to efficiently address Data Center Interconnects, Data Center Cross-Connects & Cloud-Connects that is enabling cost-effective dynamic scaling for even the most highly variable and demanding data centers.

The new solution from CloudSmartz & NoviFlow, called Data Center ConneX™ is comprised of CloudSmartz SDxSuite™ controlled with Open Source SDN Controller, OpenKilda and connected to the NoviFlow NoviSwitch™ programmable dataplane to deliver Data Center Cross Connects, Data Center & Cloud Interconnects and On-demand Efficiencies.

OpenKilda is a relatively new open source SDN controller that specifically addresses scalability, network state, self-healing and telemetry.  OpenKilda also includes a path computation engine as well as an advanced graphical user interface that provides Communication Service Providers (CSPs) and Data Center Providers complete SDN control.

Consumer demand for first-rate CSP and Data Center services is increasing at an extraordinary rate as Cloud adoption continues to grow, with more and more enterprises moving to cloud-based applications and services.  To ultimately prosper, CSPs and Data Center Providers are developing fresh revenue streams from a host of digital, on-demand services: BWoD (Bandwidth on Demand), CCoD (Cross-Connects on Demand), Cloud Connect, SD-WAN, vCPE, virtual firewalls, load balancers, cloud brokering, inter-carrier network exchange, and more.

"With our combined experience in network technologies, implementations of various open source controllers, and innovative software solutions, our collaborative CloudSmartz and NoviFlow teams continue to drive on-going success as prime implementation partners and key contributors to OpenKilda," says Manjeet Dhariwal, CTO, CloudSmartz.

The Data Center ConneX Solution, a solution bundled with NoviFlow's NoviSwitch dataplanes and CloudSmartz' Acumen360™ SDxSuite, provides a compelling SDN-based Data Center and Cloud Interconnect solution with unparalleled price performance and scalability. The NoviSwitch features unique programmable match/action pipelines that allow datacenters to define new services that are future-proof and scalable, while CloudSmartz enables end-to-end Data Center automation.

Dominique Jodoin, President and CEO of NoviFlow, explained, "The alliance between CloudSmartz and NoviFlow provides a compelling new programmable Data Center Interconnect Solution with unprecedented price-performance, extending the radical CAPEX and OPEX benefits of SDN beyond the network's edge and into the spine and core. The Data Center ConneX solution is unique in having been jointly developed with a Tier-1 CSP where it is already deployed in production. Running on the OpenKilda Controller, the bundled solution of software and switches provides a single uniform Open Standard-based forwarding plane interface for the entire network, finally delivering the programmable network that CSPs, data centers, and enterprises have been waiting for. NoviFlow is honored to collaborate with such a distinguished partner as CloudSmartz to offer state-of-the-art features and performance at reduced costs to the Data Center."
