TIME dotCom and Huawei Malaysia have successfully deployed Segment Routing IPv6 (SRv6) technology, becoming the first in Malaysia’s telecommunications industry to adopt this revolutionary technology. SRv6 is designed to meet and propel high-speed connectivity to new heights, offering tailored service bundles for B2B customers. It can deliver consistent bandwidth and low latency for mission-critical applications, and can intelligently orchestrate and monitor service pathways in real-time, ensuring that essential parameters, including bandwidth, latency, and packet loss, adhere to stringent service level agreements.
The transition to SRv6 signifies a redefining of how businesses and service providers connect, ensuring they can rely on a future-proof network that grows with them and adapts to their ever-evolving digital ecosystem. Huawei Malaysia is excited to see the rollout of SRv6 and is aiming to meet increasingly complex and stringent SLA requirements in this era of ultra-high-speed connectivity. SRv6 simplifies network protocol types, boasts extensive programmability, and high reliability, making it ideal for applications in cross-domain interconnection, large-scale networking, service cloudification, and cloud-network synergy.
The evolution of Time’s network to SRv6 is a critical step towards full network digitalisation, automation, end-to-end programmability, and network-cloud synergy. This shift results in AI-enhanced next-generation networks that can be dynamically adapted and optimized to meet the changing demands of cloud-based applications and services. The implementation of SRv6 signifies not only Time’s adaptability to the dynamic landscape of cloud-based applications but also its readiness for the future of digital services.
