Malaysia’s Maxis is modernising its data centre infrastructure to enhance its connectivity and scalability capabilities, positioning the telco for business expansion.
The upgrade involves the deployment of Nokia’s cutting-edge 7220 Interconnect Router (IXR) data centre switches and Event-Driven Automation (EDA) technology across multiple Maxis data centres. It will enable Maxis to streamline network operations, resolve issues more quickly, and automate workloads on a secure and robust infrastructure.
“This expansion of our longstanding collaboration with Nokia will drive next-generation connectivity in anticipation of customers’ growing needs. It reflects Malaysia’s emergence as a hub for data centres and hyperscalers, in line with greater adoption of AI-enabled cloud infrastructure,” said Goh Seow Eng, Chief Executive Officer of Maxis.
“This initiative will enhance our network capabilities, ensuring we are able to continue providing best-in-class connectivity-adjacent solutions powered by fast, secure and reliable connectivity,” he added.
The move is expected to provide Maxis with a future-proof architecture that is scalable, resilient and easy to deploy. It will allow the telco to provision resources without delay, reduce complexity and ensure secure applications can scale gracefully within its network.
