(MENAFN - Jordan Times) KULACOM Jordan, a leading communications carrier, has announced that it is one of the first companies in the Middle East region to become an Adopter Member of the Open Data Centre Alliance, an independent IT consortium comprised of leading global organisations from a wide array of industries who have come together to address the technical requirements needed for future datacentres and cloud infrastructure.
As part of the alliance, KULACOM will collaborate with other members to engage the industry to innovate on open standards, move the Internet to its next stage of development, and deliver an open, interoperable and secure cloud for all business and consumer uses, stated Hazim Alaeddin, KULACOM Jordans CEO.
In support of its mission to provide a unified long-term vision for data centre requirements, the alliance is developing and delivering an Open Data Centre Usage Model Roadmap, which defines Usage Model requirements to resolve key IT challenges and fulfill cloud infrastructure needs into the future.
This vendor-agnostic roadmap serves as the foundation for member planning of future data centre deployments, and relies on open, interoperable, industry-standard solutions.
