Thailand-based service provider CAT Telecom has appointed IBM to source cloud computing services.
CAT Telecom will use IBM’s SmartCloud infrastructure to offer cloud services to both private and government enterprises. Further, IBM will offer cloud infrastructure management services to CAT Telecom for a period of four years in Thailand.
The deal is expected to help the operator in delivering cost-effective cloud services while reducing power consumption and improving performance through server and storage consolidation and virtualisation.
