Espoo, Finland – Nokia announced it has been selected by the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br), the largest IXP operator in the world, to increase the performance and reliability of Brazil\u2019s internet infrastructure. Nokia\u2019s cutting-edge IP routing solutions will support NIC.br’s mission of interconnecting the Brazilian Internet ecosystem and enable its expansion and reliability. The network upgrade comes as the country faces massive internet data traffic growth that is expected to reach 218.5 million users and over 50 terabits per second (Tb\/s) in the next five years.<\/p>\n
NIC.br is responsible for, among several initiatives, registering and maintaining .br domain, as well as operating the Brazilian Internet Exchange (IX.br), which connects more than 3,500 Autonomous Systems (AS) and facilitates data traffic among internet service providers, content providers, hosting services, hyperscalers and other network operators. With Nokia’s IP routing technology, NIC.br is able to scale up its network capacity, improve its resiliency and availability, and vastly improve automation, resulting in a better customer experience.<\/p>\n
NIC.br will replace part of its existing technology with the Nokia 7250 Interconnect Router (IXR) and 7750 Service Router (SR) which support EVPN services and 400\/800G interfaces. Nokia is an industry leader in standardizing and expanding the EVPN protocol. EVPN is a next-gen VPN solution that provides a unified architecture, in both the control and data planes, and supports a broad range of carrier and business VPN services and network infrastructures. EVPN delivers a variety of benefits to service providers and their customers, including greater network efficiency, reliability, scalability, and simplifies infrastructures with advanced automation.<\/p>\n
