Ncell Axiata, an Axiata company in Nepal will leverage ZTE’s network virtualization technologies to develop a virtual subscriber data management (vSDM) platform. Axiata Group acquired Ncell from TeliaSonera for US$1.37 billion in 2016.
Ncell Axiata’s vSDM platform features the latest virtualization technology, advanced distributed architecture, hierarchical storage and multi-level protection, as well as cloud, said ZTE.
With the implementation of the vSDM platform, Ncell Axiata’s SDM platform has evolved from a traditional Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA) to a virtualized architecture seamlessly.
This allows Ncell Axiata to increase cost savings on hardware investment and operations, and establish a more intelligent and flexible telecommunications network with high stability. The vSDM platform also helps accelerate new task deployment and enhances user experience.
Moving forward, ZTE and Ncell Axiata will continue to strengthen their collaboration to enable Ncell Axiata to attain network and digital transformation through ZTE’s industry-leading solutions and technologies, contributing to the further development of Nepal’s telecommunications industry.
ZTE is also building what it calls as the world’s largest virtual Subscriber Data Management (vSDM) platform for Banglalink, one of the leading digital communications service providers of Bangladesh.
