Business Wire
Tata Communications today announces that it is extending its
global business video ecosystem with a new interconnection
agreement with AT&T. The agreement now enables even more
face-to-face collaboration around the world, across each respective
network. With this latest in a series of interprovider agreements,
Tata Communications’ Global Meeting Exchange™ network provides
connections to most of today’s major providers of Telepresence
services, offering customers unprecedented reach for their business
video networks.
“To help the telecoms industry meet the requirements of
enterprises as the growth of business video continues, there needs
to be collaboration and openness amongst service providers,” says
Peter Quinlan, Vice President, Integrated Business Video Services,
Tata Communications. “The creation of an open ecosystem in which
service providers align and interconnect their respective business
video communities will allow enterprise customers to receive not
only the best service possible, but it will also give them
unprecedented reach to other Telepresence rooms around the world,
enabling them to embrace video as a daily business communication
tool. The agreement with AT&T is the latest step in our
strategy to make business video a truly global collaboration tool
for enterprises, regardless of network, service provider or
location.”
Tata Communications’ strategy to create the world’s richest,
connected and open video ecosystem includes: business-to-business
video services, cloud-based services and flexible, modular, managed
services; as well as one of the world’s widest-reaching
Telepresence networks via inter-provider agreements and the largest
public Telepresence room footprint. These offerings culminate under
the Global Meeting Alliance™, an open business video
ecosystem initiative spearheaded by Tata Communications, which
provides participating enterprises and service providers with
greater global reach, lower total cost of ownership and a
world-class user experience.
“AT&T is working closely with a number of service and
technology providers in the industry to enable more pervasive and
global video collaboration capabilities without borders,” said Alan
Benway, Executive Director of AT&T Business Solutions. “The
interprovider agreement with Tata Communications is another step in
that effort, broadening access for AT&T Telepresence Solution
customers as they look to collaborate through even more endpoints
globally.”
Video is a key driver of global internet traffic growth.
Research firm Informa Telecoms & Media1 recently estimated that
video accounts for 50% of annual internet traffic growth. Two-way
business video requires more bandwidth than one-way broadcast
video. As such, service providers’ networks are going to be put
under greater pressure to manage this increasing level of demand.
Tata Communications owns and operates the world’s only fibre optic
sub-sea network ring around the globe, enabling the company to
firmly support the explosion in network traffic generated by
video.
