Digital infrastructure company Colt Technology Services and its strategic partner Versa Networks, which develops AI/ML-powered unified SASE and SD-WAN, announced a milestone in automating and streamlining digital services for global customers.
Specifically, 1,000 Versa SD-WAN services have been delivered across 55 countries, via automation, since its April 2023 launch.
Using Versa SD-WAN platform capabilities, Colt has developed an automation framework that fully integrates with internal systems via APIs. Automating the delivery of these services, the companies noted, cuts provisioning time from 90 minutes to 12 seconds, thus reducing the risk of manual error while freeing businesses from having to provision, manage and monitor digital infrastructure.
“We listen intently to our customers and constantly look for ways to improve and innovate to make their lives easier,” said VP – services delivery, Colt, Carlos Jesus. “Automating and simplifying the delivery of our SD WAN services is a critical part of this continuous improvement mission. Remotely provisioning our 1000th Versa SD-WAN service shows how important automation has become in our customers’ journeys to digital transformation. It’s testament to the strength of our longstanding partnership with Versa.”
“We are delighted to partner with Colt to deliver these industry-leading automation capabilities,” said Hector Avalos, VP, EMEA service providers, Versa Networks. “The enhanced combination of our capabilities and Colt’s technology bridges the gap between an organization’s business objectives and enforcement of Versa’s SD-WAN network, enabling Colt’s customers to achieve faster time-to-value, reduced costs, and improved agility.”
