Leading Innovators Join Forces to Bring Next Generation Internet to Broad
Customer Base
New York and Houston, Mar. 24, 2008 The Planet, the worlds largest
privately held dedicated hosting company, and NTT America, Inc. (NTTA), a wholly
owned U.S. subsidiary of NTT Communications Corporation and a global enterprise
solution provider that integrates networks, hosting and Web infrastructure
services, announced today that The Planet will offer its more than 22,000
customers access to IPv6, the next-generation Internet protocol. Development on
the project begins immediately, and The Planet expects to announce availability
in late 2008.
IPv6 provides a vast improvement over the current IPv4, deployed in the 1980s,
by increasing address space, providing support for mobile devices, and improving
quality of service and data security.
One of our top priorities at The Planet is to make sure all of our customers
have access to the best technologies to keep their businesses competitive now
and in the future, said Stan Barber, vice president, Network Operations, at The
Planet. As the Internet grows in complexity and becomes even more ubiquitous,
were looking to the future so that we are fully prepared to meet the vast needs
of our customers. Working with NTT America allows us to add the considerable
benefits of IPv6 to The Planets network and to help our customers prepare for
the continued impact the Internet will have on their companies.
As one of the first hosting companies to announce its plans for IPv6, The Planet
continues to provide enhancements that give current customers methodologies to
be ready today and for the future. By adding NTT Americas IPv6 transit to The
Planet network, The Planet will be able to offer each hosting customer an
innovative, dual-stack approach, which provides the most efficient approach for
using both IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously.
NTT Communications Group has been directly involved with the development and
deployment of IPv6 technology since 1996. With the launch of IPv6 transit
services in 2001 and the first IPv6 managed firewall solution in 2005, which was
provided by NTT America, the NTT Communications Group established itself as the
global leader in commercial IPv6 managed services solutions.
As the operator of the worlds largest commercial IPv6 network and with more
than ten years of direct involvement with its development and deployment, we are
pleased to be able to be working with The Planet to create long-term sustainable
growth for their customers on the Internet, said Michael Wheeler, vice
president of Sales and Business Development at NTT America. We continue to be
committed to bringing superior technology, solutions and services to our
customers worldwide.
The NTT Communications Group provides IPv6 Gateway services that are available
globally and allow enterprises to connect to the worlds only commercial-grade
Global Tier One IPv6 Backbone operating in four continents-North America,
Europe, Asia and Australia-and serving thousands of customers. In addition, NTT
has improved upon the inherent security features of IPv6 with the creation of
its IntelliSecurity IPv6 Managed Firewall solution. The solution complements the
NTT Communications Groups existing suite of managed IPv6 Gateway Services, and
satisfies the need for increased security for IPv6 users. NTT America also
provides IPv6 transition solutions through its IPv6 Transition Consultancy,
which supports companies and federal agencies smooth transition to the
upgraded IPv6 network with specialized products and knowledge accumulated
through the NTT Communications Groups successful commercial implementation of
IPv6 technology.
