TYSONS, Va. and DALLAS,
Oct. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- AT&T* and CSC today announced that they are expanding
access to AT&T FlexWare – a solution designed to meet the
evolving needs of business. CSC will now offer AT&T FlexWare as
its "Virtual Edge" service in its next generation offering
portfolio.
AT&T and CSC are empowering businesses with customer-centric
solutions through software-defined networking. The companies are
working together to deploy the first Systems Integrator provided
content into the AT&T FlexWare solution for CSC's clients. They
are also developing a model to include CSC digital services at the
edge of the network, where virtual network functions (VNFs) will
reside.
AT&T FlexWare lets businesses adapt to their networking
needs in near-real time, with easy management of VNFs from a single
device. Formerly AT&T Network Functions on Demand, AT&T
FlexWare is available globally through the AT&T Network on
Demand platform.
"With CSC offering AT&T FlexWare to its customers, we're
gaining a wider reach to help customers be agile and expand their
networking capabilities," said Roman
Pacewicz, senior vice president, Offer Management and
Service Integration, AT&T Business Solutions. "There is a
digital shift changing business for every sector. Working with CSC,
we can help businesses keep up in the quickly changing
environment."
This initiative builds on a longstanding alliance between
AT&T and CSC. As the relationship continues to grow, the
companies will look at new ways to combine strengths to deliver
innovative solutions. For example, CSC customers will be able to
try AT&T FlexWare before buying.
"This is a big step in our relationship with AT&T, which we
have been expanding to support all of the global industries we
touch," said Dan Hushon, chief
technology officer, CSC. "Through these new software-defined
network services, clients will gain more agility and self-service
capabilities. Our alliance with AT&T enables us to deliver
value to both our new and existing clients through our
industry-leading solutions."
