Alkira has appointed Exclusive Networks to introduce its cloud networking as-a-service (CNaaS) platform to the channel. This makes Alkira’s Cloud Services Exchange (CSX) available through Exclusive’s partners in 40 countries across five continents.
The AI-based CSX system claims to be so clever it allows service providers to solve major network problems in “a few mouse clicks” and can bring the Israelis and the Palestinians together (we made the last one up).
Alkira founder and CEO Amir Khan said the industry faces a shortage of networking expertise and the lack of control costs the industry billions of pounds, with wasted resources and security compromises being just two of the many problems. This means that networks cost too much, are easily hacked and are difficult to defend.
