Reliance Communications (RCOM) and its subsidiary, Global Cloud Xchange (GCX), have shared updates on the company’s plan.
Fixed-line communications, data center, subsea cables and enterprise services globally will get additional focus from RCOM.
Reliance Communications, a company promoted by Anil Ambani, has already started selling its telecom assets to Reliance Jio. Reliance Communications earlier stopped mobile services on its 2G, 3G and 4G networks.
“We will operate and accelerate our business, delivering uninterrupted services to customers. We are currently undertaking a series of key initiatives to significantly enhance our network infrastructure, processes and people capabilities,” Bill Barney, CEO of RCOM and GCX, said.
RCOM recently completed its hyperscale data center in Mumbai. The new facility will have direct connectivity into GCX’s new EAGLE express subsea cable system, which will deliver the fastest routes from Mumbai, going east to Hong Kong and west to Italy.
“We plan to expand our connected data centers across hubs in India, including Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai. We have lined up key Cloud provider partners to further leverage our facilities as aggregation points across India,” Barney said.
The company’s expansion of its data center footprint, along with ownership of the world’s largest private subsea cable system, has aligned RCOM/GCX with top OTT and technology partners worldwide, paving the way into the next stage of global Cloud acceleration and adoption.
RCOM is also in the process of aligning network opportunities with strategic partners to enable deployment of fiber across the country, which will enhance scalability and diversity to meet domestic business requirements.
