MANSFIELD, Massachusetts, ÖRNSKÖLDSVIK,
Sweden and NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug.
18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Telco Systems, the leading
provider of innovative SDN/NFV, CE 2.0, MPLS and IP solutions,
Clavister, a leader in high performance cybersecurity
solutions, and AdcareIT, a leading provider of outsourced
technology services in Kenya,
today jointly announced that the companies have entered into a
multiyear engagement for AdcareIT to deploy managed secure SD-WAN
services using an integrated NFV edge solution from Telco Systems
and Clavister.
AdcareIT is one of the fastest growing managed service providers
(MSPs) in Kenya. The company is
targeting SMEs and large enterprises across the country with its
new managed SD-WAN and cybersecurity services.
The joint solution features Clavister's connectivity and
cybersecurity VNFs running on Telco Systems' NFVTime uCPE solution.
To reduce barriers of entry and expand the addressable market for
AdcareIT, the Telco Systems-Clavister solution has been provided on
a flexible, pay-as-you-grow subscription model.
Telco Systems' NFVTime is an open plug-and-play virtualization
suite. It provides a complete environment for quick service
deployments with centralized management and ongoing orchestration.
NFVTime's operating system is the only available NFVi-OS that can
run on both x86 and Arm®-based devices. Clavister's secure SD-WAN
VNF is the answer for IT administrators managing security
infrastructure for multisite customers to simplify their deployment
and maintenance routines, while saving cost.
"These new connectivity and cybersecurity services are the
initial steps of our strategic plan to expand our service portfolio
and grow our customer base," explained Tobias Seda, Managing Director of AdcareIT.
"With this joint solution from Telco Systems and Clavister, we gain
a significant competitive advantage and can quickly deploy cost
efficient SD-WAN and security services in a low risk framework and
expand to new virtualized services without replacing the existing
hardware."
The integrated NFV edge solution from Telco Systems and
Clavister supports zero touch provisioning that minimizes service
delivery logistics and eliminates the need for costly on-site
technicians. Running on low cost, high performance Arm-based
hardware architecture, this joint solution enables AdcareIT to
design, deploy and monitor services for multiple customers
operating across multiple locations in one centralized management
solution.
"This is a very exciting development in terms of both the
deployment for our security offering for SD-WAN, but also our
belief that service providers will be the predominant form to
deliver SD-WAN to customers cost effectively and with minimal
effort," said Przemek Sienkiewicz,
Chief Strategy Officer at Clavister. "Working with our great
partner Telco Systems on its NFVTime uCPE makes all that
possible."
"We are proud to be working with Adcare IT on this exciting
project and expanding our well-established presence in East Africa as well as strengthening our
partnership with Clavister," explained Ariel Efrati, CEO at Telco Systems. "As a
managed service provider in an emerging economy, AdcareIT
exemplifies the logistic and business benefits of providing secure
SD-WAN services on our NFVTime uCPE solution."
