Thailand's INET adopts DWDM to link data centers

Internet Thailand Public Company (INET) is implementing Nokia's DWDM technology to connect the company’s two data centers in the capital city Bangkok to a site in Saraburi.

In keeping with the trend of big data, where major global customers are expanding their data hosting plans, INET has seen its data center business grow significantly over the past few years.

The ICT solutions provider invested in multiple data center sites to support this growing demand, necessitating massive data connection requirements between sites to keep customer data secured and managed, with a better total cost of ownership (TCO).

Nokia has deployed its DCI solution in conjunction with reseller Teohong Silom, helping INET introduce multiple types of data center interfaces and data rates to existing and new customers, thus assuring a highly reliable network.

The solution is based on the 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) and managed by the Network Services Platform.

"We were faced with the challenge of connecting multiple sites spread over increasing distances,” Internet Thailand Public Company deputy managing director Wanchai Vach-shewadumrong said.

“A simple dark fiber connection proved insufficient for scaling the business, therefore we evaluated several DCI solutions in the market. Nokia's product features and reliability, along with strong support from the local team, gives us the confidence we need to freely expand our data center capacity without the constraint of any interconnection bandwidth."
