After a long-standing partnership in the networking communications space, the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT) Group and NTT Communications (NTT Com) recently expanded its alliance into ICT to bring NTT Com\u2019s Enterprise Cloud solutions to the Philippines. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Enterprise Cloud is an enterprise-grade infrastructure as a service (IaaS) solution provided by NTT Com for PLDT\u2019s enterprise customers.<\/p>\n

The platform is managed via purpose-built software, and on multiple servers located in multiple international locations such as Japan, US, UK, Germany, Australia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia.<\/p>\n

PLDT EVP and Head of Enterprise, International and Carrier Business and ePLDT President and CEO Eric Alberto and NTT SVP \u2013 Fifth Sales Division Ken Kusunoki shake hands to seal the partnership.<\/p><\/div>\n

The signing was held at the NTT Com office in Tokyo, Japan. Representing the PLDT Group was PLDT EVP and Head for Enterprise, International and Carrier Business and ePLDT President and CEO, Eric R. Alberto while NTT Com SVP and Head for Fifth Sales Division, Ken Kusunoki represented NTT Com.<\/p>\n

PLDT\u2019s new IaaS service grants enterprise customers with the ability to virtually access their individualized customer portal to modify configurations on their virtual data centers. This will allow Philippine enterprise customers to consider new solutions for global operations especially in countries where NTT Com\u2019s cloud is present, and at the same time provide new options for business continuity using resources outside the Philippines.<\/p>\n

PLDT and NTT Com are long-standing allies, with NTT Com holding a minority stake of 5.85 percent in PLDT. More opportunities in the partnership will be evident as PLDT further develops its Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions, ERP, Supply Chain and other Business Applications in the cloud. Both PLDT and NTT Com plan to make the most of their alliance in future service development and offerings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
