AT&T (T), IBM (IBM) Enter Private Network Cloud Partnership

October 9, 2012 6:27 AM EDT
AT&T (NYSE: T) and IBM (NYSE: IBM) announced a business agreement to deliver a highly secure, first-of-its-kind "network-enabled" cloud service that uses private networks rather than the public Internet.

The companies are combining AT&T virtual private networking and IBM SmartCloud Enterprise+ cloud capabilities with breakthrough technology from AT&T Labs to create a new, fast and highly-secure shared cloud service. Targeted to Fortune 1000 companies globally, the service will be offered in early 2013 as a powerful new option for clients who are deploying cloud solutions that demand high levels of security and availability. Many businesses often cite security as a key inhibitor to cloud computing adoption.
