IDC MarketScape: Asia/Pacific Next-Generation Telcos: Telecom Services 2018 Vendor Assessment, Doc # AP43860618, May 2018
“Telstra has become the first telco to interconnect its flagship software-defined platform, Telstra Programmable Networks (TPN) directly to the Equinix Cloud Exchange (ECX) and expose clouds services to a TPN GUI… few operators, perhaps a handful, have built their own SD-platform from the core, embraced a lot of open source and gone down the path of building own ‘IP’ and lines of code.”
GlobalData, September 2018
“TPN has enabled us to improve our business continuity, save millions of Yen in hardware costs, and given us the platform for further digitisation. Our network engineers think it’s the coolest thing they have seen in years!”
Marc Arkinstall, IT Manager, Mannatech Japan
