IBM News room - 2014-07-29 Breakthrough Elastic Cloud-to Cloud Networking Unveiled by AT&T, IBM Research and ACS - United States

DALLAS, Texas, YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y. and BASKING RIDGE, New Jersey - 29 Jul 2014: Scientists from AT&T, IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Applied Communication Sciences (ACS) announced a proof-of-concept technology that reduces set up times for cloud-to-cloud connectivity from days to seconds. This advance is a major step forward that could one day lead to sub-second provisioning time with IP and next generation optical networking equipment and enables elastic bandwidth between clouds at high connection request rates using intelligentcloud data center orchestrators, instead of requiring static provisioning for peak demand.
The prototype was built with contributions and expertise from AT&T, IBM and ACS, and the work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Government’s DARPA CORONET program, which focuses on rapid reconfiguration of terabit networks.
