Push Technology and Telefonica Digital are collaborating to offer the first global high performance cloud solution. The scalable solution distributes data from the cloud to any device. It is powered by Push Technology’s Diffusion technology combined with Telefonica Digital’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), allowing customers to address the challenges of bandwidth, infrastructure and redundant data to reduce costs and increase revenue.
The service provides access to IaaS using less bandwidth while supporting multiple endpoints with few servers. The right data can also be supplied in real-time, removing redundant data from the network which can affect quality of service and add unwanted and unneeded cost to the end-user.
“Cloud service providers are operating a utility model to promote the benefits of lower CAPEX and scale. The problem is these cloud service providers are not addressing the challenges of the internet i.e. bandwidth and network availability so regardless of the services in-house, the delivery can become a quality of service nightmare”, said Sean Bowen, CEO, Push Technology.
Tim Marsden, Director of Cloud at Telefónica Digital, added: “This agreement creates an entirely new method of building mobile and Web services more in line with the requirements of businesses to stay competitive though super optimised cloud performance.”
Lee Cottle, Senior VP of Global Alliances & Business Development at Push Technology said, “Organisations need to support today’s applications that require exponentially more data, often involving real-time information with unpredictable user demand. The go-to solution for cloud service providers is to scale using more infrastructure, but now our customers will be able to scale without a costly infrastructure investment, distributing data more intelligently.”
Businesses now have a truly optimised cloud solution for mobile, Web and M2M applications that will reduce the amount of data used by end users to drive applications. With most services moving to mobile and web application, this joint proposition offers future customers a solution to deliver high performance applications in real time at low cost.
