KUALA LUMPUR: Anise Asia Cloud Sdn Bhd, a Joyent-powered cloud service provider for South-East Asia, will soon link up its public cloud computing network with other Joyent-powered peers around the world to form a global cloud-computing platform - to be called Global Compute Network (GCN).
According to Anise Asia Cloud president Suhaimee Abu Hassan, the GCN will enable all kinds of business transactions, models and arrangements on a worldwide scale and form its own ecosystem that would act as an engine of international trade.
"It will strengthen bilateral, multilateral and regional trade relations and cooperation, enabling our customers to reach out to the world to expand their businesses and also bring in world markets to this region," he said.
Suhaimee expected the global cloud-computing platform to be up and running by the end of this year.
Once in operation, Anise Asia Cloud's network would be connected to CNLink and ClusterTech in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing; Softbank and First Server for Japan; Orascom - the fifth largest telco in the world - for Middle East and Africa; Libero for Middle East and Italy; Wind for Southern Europe and; Mitac for Taiwan and the Pan Asia region, among others.
All these sites are powered by the San Francisco-based global cloud-computing software and services company Joyent Inc - which licenses its cloud software called SmartDataCenter to service providers around the world to deliver cloud-computing services to their customers.
Joyent has appointed Anise Asia Cloud as the sole distributor for SmartDataCenter for South-East Asia.
According to Suhaimee, his company has so far inked agreements with Xybase Sdn Bhd here and PT Quadra in Indonesia.
