Tata Communications should create an advanced network ready for AI in India for Amazon web services (AWS) connecting the main AWS infrastructure sites.
In what becomes a growing trend among global telecommunications operators, which invest substantial funds to develop or upgrade their terrestrial networks to respond to future data traffic demands, provided by advanced data workloads such as IA / ML, while intervening future of their networks to meet the requirements of their hyperscalers and business customers.
The strategic collaboration between companies will see Tata Communications Connect the three main infrastructure facilities of the hyperscalers located throughout the country with two data centers located in Mumbai and Hyderabad, and its direct Connect and Edge Network infrastructure located in Chennai. According to companies, the new fiber network will include express routes designed to provide ultra-shows latency, which is considered essential for AI and ML workloads with high calculation intensity.
With the construction of fibers, which is the largest construction project of the company, a length of cable estimated at 18,000 km offering a network capacity of 7.2 TB
Brendan Swan, senior research analyst, GlobalData said: “In the past 12 months, more world telecommunications operators are looking to improve and modernize their land networks to support the increase in data traffic brought by IA growth.”
“Telecommunications operators have considerably increased their capital expenses improving their network capacities, in particular using modern technologies such as integrated AI, Automatic learning (ML) and cognitive IT,” added Swan.
In the United States, Lumen has announced that it would increase its capital expenses by 30% to $ 4.2 billion to meet its interurban needs while the carrier seeks to quadruple its network of fibers in the coming years while launching its fabric of private connectivity, a personalized network which includes access dedicated to existing hydraupions in the Lumen network, providing network capacity, Speed mainly targeted to hydrascoeseur and central data suppliers.
In addition, Zayo has announced that they planned to build 5,000 miles of new road miles to be completed by the well in progress, connecting Phoenix to Tucson, and Chicago to Minneapolis and Columbus. Zayo also carried out a full level of 400 g of its North American network.
