In the dynamic world of technology and hosting services, Nokia has emerged as a key enabler, fostering innovation and growth for its partners. The Finnish telecom giant recently collaborated with Cloudbear, a Dutch hosting services provider, to upgrade its network infrastructure. This strategic partnership has unlocked new possibilities for customized hosting services across Europe, setting a new standard for the industry.

Cloudbear, a fast-growing player in the managed cloud services realm, is revolutionizing the way businesses approach SaaS application development and support. By empowering clients to focus exclusively on their core competencies, Cloudbear takes care of the heavy lifting, from infrastructure design and management to Continuous Deployment pipelines, monitoring, and dashboarding. At the heart of their services lies CBWS, an advanced cloud environment in Eindhoven, powered by Nokia's state-of-the-art networking technology.

Nokia's role in this transformation is pivotal, offering a complete data center networking solution that includes fabric switching, interconnection, and peering. This comprehensive approach enables Cloudbear to provide customized hosting services tailored to meet the specific requirements of its clients, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability. By leveraging Nokia's 7220 IXR-D series platforms for data center leaf and spine roles, as well as the 7750 SR-1 router, Cloudbear can seamlessly connect to upcoming data center locations within its infrastructure, facilitating expansion and growth.



The deployment of Nokia's SR Linux Network Operating System (NOS) has further enhanced Cloudbear's network automation capabilities. SR Linux offers a new level of openness, telemetry, and programmability, allowing Cloudbear to automate network functions and respond to changes in real-time. This investment in advanced technology underscores Cloudbear's commitment to innovation and continuous improvement, positioning the company to deliver high-quality, customized hosting services to its customers across Europe.

In addition to its technical prowess, Nokia's community-driven approach has been instrumental in Cloudbear's implementation success. The SR Linux Discord channel has provided quick access to questions and support, ensuring minimal downtime and smooth service delivery. Furthermore, the integration of Nokia's open-source project Containerlab into Cloudbear's CI/CD pipeline has streamlined operations, enabling faster and more efficient service deployment.



Nokia's commitment to customer success and tailored approach to data center solutions has significantly benefited Cloudbear's future growth and expansion plans. By offering a complete data center networking solution, Nokia empowers Cloudbear to enhance its ability to deliver fast, reliable, and secure hosting services across Europe. This partnership enables Cloudbear to differentiate itself in the competitive European hosting services market, setting new benchmarks for customer satisfaction and service quality.

As the global tech landscape continues to evolve, Nokia's collaboration with Cloudbear serves as a testament to the power of partnerships and innovation. By leveraging advanced technology and a customer-centric approach, these companies are paving the way for new frontiers in customized hosting services, empowering businesses to thrive in the digital age.
