April 8, 2010 - PRLog -- NTT Com Asia, a wholly owned subsidiary of NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com), today announced the launch of Global Virtualization Service in Hong Kong.  Leveraging on the global infrastructure of the parent company and its partnership with VMware, the new and expanded capabilities of its virtualization service will provide customers with a one-stop solution to managing and monitoring their global operations efficiently.

According to IDC１, the global virtualization services market will grow from its annual level of US$5.5 billion in 2006 to US$11.7 billion by 2011.  “We strongly believe that virtualization possesses great potential and we are committed to dedicating our resources in fostering it at full gear.  The best testament to this is our expertise – NTT Com Asia owns a big team of VMWare Certified Professionals to provide the best virtualization solution to our clients.  In the near future, we will continue to invest in R&D and staff training to enhance our services in the area” he added.  

The partnership between VMware and NTT Communications makes it possible for NTT Com Asia to leverage on VMware’s platform to offer an on-demand virtualization service (Virtualization as a Service / VaaS) and to deliver customized solutions for clients around the world. Backed by the group’s world-class Tier 1 IP backbone, state-of-the-art data centres and ICT expertise, customers can optimize their solutions with a wide spectrum of value-added service options.
