The cold climate of the Nordics has been a hothouse for data center growth in recent years. Now, however, there is a growing need for high-speed data center connectivity automatically protected by the most robust encryption. What’s more, this needs to be available across all types of network and performance-assured end to end. At Datacenter Forum in Stockholm, Dieter Will revealed details of our pioneering PoCs focused on secure connectivity at every network layer. Together with three key partners, Ficolo, Neos IT Services and Creanord, ADVA conducted a series of industry-first PoCs to demonstrate highly efficient security and performance across every kind of connectivity service. The trials showed how new methods can deliver lower latency, better throughput, improved security and real-time QoS monitoring, when compared to today’s traditional IPSec security. The tests involved three new solutions built on ADVA’s ConnectGuard™ toolkit. They showed how this technology is the key to attracting many more customers to Nordic data centers, whether they are connecting to the cloud, to the data center, or any IT resource.
