KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 12 — Maxis Bhd has forged a strategic partnership with a global technology leader, Cisco, through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) inked here today, to jointly deliver a wide range of market-leading technologies for businesses in Malaysia.
The first of many planned joint offerings from this partnership for the Malaysian market is the Managed Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) solution for business.
Maxis’ chief enterprise business officer Paul McManus said the collaboration would empower enterprises in embracing the significant benefits of the next generation of digital network solutions.
