Nokia Chooses Linux for Telecom Solution
Nokia has selected Red Hat Enterprise Linux as its primary operating system for carrier-grade server platforms. Red Hat will provide Nokia with onsite consulting, support, certification and training services, and will be tightly integrated with Nokia's technical team for telecommunications solutions development.
"The Red Hat Enterprise Linux platform has long been known for high levels of reliability and availability in situations where downtime is not an option. Working with Nokia, we plan to make our solution for the telecommunications industry even stronger," said Paul Cormier, executive vice president of Engineering, Red Hat.
Juha Carlson, General Manager, Product Platforms at Networks, Nokia. "The aim is to provide superior customer value with open, advanced and high quality products, solutions and services. Our cooperation with Red Hat on Enterprise Linux is building on Nokia's experience and commitment to open ecosystems and technologies."
Nokia will continue to work with Red Hat on carrier-grade server platforms that are used as the underlying infrastructure for a wide range of emerging Nokia solutions. Nokia will focus its deployment on the FlexiPlatform, and will complete full integration with Red Hat Enterprise Linux on multiple hardware variants this year.
Last month Red Hat declared telecommunications to be one of its key target markets as it joined a European Commission project to create telecommunication service delivery platform standards.
"All these delivery services are driving infrastructure build-out and they see the advantage of open source," said Tim Yeaton, senior VP of worldwide marketing and general manager of Red Hat's product division.
Earlier this month it announced that 29 strategic telecommunications independent software vendors had become part of the company's telecommunications partner program in the last six months.
