Sparkle announces the construction of Nibble, the new European network based on \u201cSoftware-Defined\u201d technology<\/p>\n
Sparkle, the first international service provider in Italy and among the top ten global operators, announces the construction of Nibble, its new ultra-long-haul photonic backbone linking Sicily with the major Points of Presence (PoPs) and data centres in Europe.<\/p>\n
Built upon new express fibres, Nibble will provide scalable high-performance and low-latency connectivity services, at industry-leading speeds, thus meeting carriers and enterprises\u2019 rapidly increasing network capacity requirements.<\/p>\n
Nibble ultra-performant photonic layer will progressively be integrated with Sparkle\u2019s existing Mediterranean and Balkans Network and with BlueMed, the new multifiber submarine cable linking Palermo and Milan via Genoa, creating a seamless Pan Mediterranean Optical Transport Network.<\/p>\n
The first link – planned to be operational in the summer of 2019 – will connect Sparkle\u2019s Sicily Hub\u00a0 in Palermo with Milan Caldera open datacentre. Nibble construction is planned to continue in several phases until the end of 2020, when it will fully integrate with the Mediterranean and Balkans networks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sparkle announces the construction of Nibble, the new European network based on \u201cSoftware-Defined\u201d technology Sparkle, the first international service provider in Italy and among the top ten global operators, announces the construction of Nibble, its new ultra-long-haul photonic backbone linking Sicily with the major Points of Presence (PoPs) and data centres in Europe.
