Shares of Infinera Corporation (NASDAQ:INFN), gained 1.75% to $20.38, during the last trading session on Thursday.
Infinera Corporation, declared that Blackboard, the world’s leading education technology company, has deployed the Infinera Cloud Xpress to interconnect three U.S. datacenters to enhance their ability to deliver rich online education services. Blackboard selected the Cloud Xpress for its hyper-scale density, operational simplicity and low power consumption. Blackboard is focused on leveraging technology and services in order to reimagine education and make it more accessible, engaging and relevant to the modern day learner.
Blackboard chose Infinera’s Cloud Xpress, with its small form factor, low power consumption solution, and coupled it with Infinera’s Instant Bandwidth™ solution that is designed to offer an easy way to scale bandwidth in 100 gigabits per second (Gb/s) increments without changes in hardware. Infinera’s Cloud Xpress enables Blackboard to deliver rich educational services to learners and the institutions that serve them, by providing up to one terabit per second (Tb/s) of input and output capacity in just two rack units (RU). Further, Cloud Xpress is designed to streamline operations and offer appliance-like simplicity, which comprises a single fiber to deliver a 500 Gb/s super-channel of line-side capacity, a highly-reliable photonic integrated circuit and the flexibility of 10 gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 40 GbE recently, and 100 GbE client side interfaces in the future. The ultra-low power and rack-and-stack form factor of Cloud Xpress enables Blackboard to scale while using small amounts of space and power — a key consideration in today’s datacenters. In addition, the Cloud Xpress is designed with a new software approach that allows it to plug into existing Cloud provisioning systems using open software-defined networking (SDN) application programming interfaces (APIs). Similar to the server and storage infrastructure presently deployed in the Cloud, the Cloud Xpress is designed to integrate easily and rapidly into existing operational processes and to enable Cloud providers to scale quickly and simplify operations.
Infinera Corporation provides optical transport networking equipment, software, and services for telecommunications service providers, Internet content providers, cable operators, wholesale and enterprise carriers, research and education institutions, and government entities worldwide.
