Huawei Launches Agile Network Solutions In Nigeria

Huawei, a leading global Information and Communications Technology (ICT) solutions provider, has launched the Agile Network Solutions in Nigeria at the 2015 Huawei Network Congress (HNC) West Africa in Lagos with the theme: ‘From Agility to Imagination’ focusing on introducing SDN technology as well as upgrading customer experience.

Huawei’s Agile Network is the industry’s first network centred on services, users, and experiences.

Since its rollout in 2013, Huawei Agile Network has been deployed in nearly 200 networks for commercial use in seven industries: government, finance, medical services, large enterprise, transport, education, and broadcast media. The network has helped customers build multiple high-profile solutions such as intelligent transport, wireless cities, smart shopping malls, and smart travel.

HNC 2015 is the forum being used to share and discuss with industry partners, the practices and future of the Agile Network, with the aim of helping enterprises to quickly enter the age of agility.

“We are now in a fast-changing era where Cloud computing, Big Data, and Software-defined networking (SDN) are no strangers to us. As mobility, Bring your own device (BYOD), and digital social networking become terms commonly used in our work and life, the rapid changes of this era are more and more evident. In such an era, IT capability is becoming an extremely important core competency for an enterprise,” said Mr. Shi Weiliang, vice president of Huawei West Africa Region, in a keynote address at the conference.

“Huawei’s Agile Network focuses on services and user experience instead of technologies and connectivity, and implements a tremendous transformation from ‘best effort ‘to ‘all in control’. Huawei will continue to put forth innovative business models, and enable networks to be more agile for services, to help enterprises build their own differentiated competitiveness in a better connected world,” he said.
