Cisco Systems Charts Strategy for Intelligent Information Networks in Vietnam
Cisco Systems has revealed its strategy to help customers in Vietnam build Intelligent Information Networks. The Intelligent Information Network is Cisco's vision and strategy for the network's evolution from basic connectivity products to unified network systems that will serve as the foundation for a complete business architecture.
This gives customers the foundation to eliminate the "physical boundaries" of the traditional wired world and provide end-users with a transparent experience across applications, services, processes and infrastructure. Cisco is also helping in the development of IP networking skills amongst the next generation of Vietnamese workers through the Cisco Networking Academy programme. In partnership with educational institutions, the academy programme curriculum uses technologies associated with networking and the Internet to impart skills for how to plan, build and deploy those same networks to students.
Cisco’s operation in Vietnam has grown significantly in recent years, and Cisco is continuing to allocate more resources in terms of personnel and support in the country.
"Vietnam is very important for Cisco and we want to reinforce our long term commitment to helping the country through the use of Internet business solutions and Internet Protocol (IP)-based networking" said Mr Patra-Yanan, general director. "Cisco’s open, end-to-end IP infrastructure provides a foundation for a range of productivity-enhancing applications, simplifies application development, and enhances the ability for companies to collaborate with partners, suppliers and customers."
