Telstra to Sell IBM's SoftLayer Infrastructure-as-a-Service

Telstra will sell IBM's SoftLayer Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform from IBM. Under the agreement, Telstra customers will have access to SoftLayer’s highly secure and agile cloud infrastructure.

IBM recently opened new data centres in Melbourne and Sydney.

“Telstra customers will be able to access IBM’s hourly and monthly compute services on the SoftLayer platform, a network of virtual data centres and global points-of-presence (PoPs), all of which are increasingly important as enterprises look to run their applications on the cloud. SoftLayer is a platform that lets businesses quickly migrate, build, test, and deploy their applications and innovations,” said Erez Yarkoni, Telstra’s Chief Information Officer and Executive Director of Cloud.
