As a member of Canada’s CENGN (Centre of Excellence in Next Generation Networks) consortium, Wind River will now be working with a set of talented individuals who are committed to keeping Canada’s place on the map as a technology and innovation power house.

One of many areas of mutual interest between Wind River and CENGN is NFV and OpenStack. Wind River has been developing highly reliable, high performance virtualisation solutions for many years, and the Titanium Cloud portfolio is the jewel in the crown of development efforts in this space. 

CENGN too has been very active and visible in NFV, participating in a wide range of industry events and conferences, and actively contributing to the Linux Foundation’s OPNFV project.

These common interests in background, it is clear that CENGN is in the process of ramping up on the Wind River Titanium Cloud portfolio of products. In 2017 so far, Wind River donated everything required to kick-start some hands on Titanium Cloud project work by CENGN, providing software licenses, server hardware and onsite training to an eager group of CENGN students, staffers and project team members.

CENGN will be leveraging this private, dedicated instance of select Titanium Cloud products in support of NFV and cloud commercialisation projects sponsored by other CENGN team members. 

Through this engagement, CENGN will have the opportunity to learn first hand how a product developed exclusively for hosting critical infrastructure applications differs from typical IT or Enterprise virtualisation products.

For Wind River, working with the CENGN team, hearing ideas and listening to feedback will only help contribute to ongoing products.
