The CoreSite Open Cloud Exchange is the company’s fastest
growing interconnection product, providing customers with direct
access to leading public and private cloud providers, along with
network and solution providers, including AWS Direct Connect,
Microsoft Azure ExpressRoute, Alibaba Cloud, Faction and
PacketFabric. The CoreSite Open Cloud Exchange is available across
all 8 of CoreSite’s markets and is a high-performance
interconnection platform that enables enterprises and service
providers to optimize hybrid and multi-cloud network architectures.
CoreSite is a unique data center provider based on its direct
connectivity partnerships to leading service providers and ability
to support both fiber and Ethernet based interconnection.
Ciena’s Blue Planet MDSO is an open and vendor-agnostic software
solution that allows network operators and enterprises to rapidly
create, deploy, and automate the end-to-end provisioning of network
services spanning the WAN, data center, and cloud. Within the
redesigned Open Cloud Exchange platform, Blue Planet will enable
CoreSite’s customers to dynamically and rapidly interconnect to a
variety of cloud service providers via an on-demand portal.
Additionally, with Blue Planet’s network automation capabilities,
Open Cloud Exchange will provide customers the ability to adjust
bandwidth to a particular cloud service provider to match
fluctuating demands.
“Innovative data center providers like CoreSite understand the
benefit of leveraging advanced software solutions to not only
reduce network complexity and costs, but to help accelerate service
delivery and provide a best-in-class customer experience. Ciena’s
Blue Planet solution accomplishes these goals by providing software
control and intelligent automation capabilities that will enable
CoreSite’s network providers to truly adapt to rapidly changing IT
environments,” said Kailem Anderson, Vice President of Software and
Services at Ciena.
"We are excited to work with Ciena’s world class development
team to create for our customers an exceptional Open Cloud Exchange
upgrade to provide our customers innovative ways to efficiently and
effectively customize and optimize their network architecture,”
said Brian Warren, Senior Vice President of Product and Engineering
