Together with its partners, Cisco is building the Intercloud-a globally connected network of clouds. Today, Proximus, amongst other cloud providers, announced to join Cisco's Intercloud partner ecosystem, bringing the number of cloud providers to more than 60 with a footprint across more than 50 countries. 

Through its participation in the Intercloud initiative, Proximus will be able to offer a complete hybrid cloud solution that responds even more closely to companies' needs for performance, security and flexibility. 

The major advantage of the hybrid approach is that the customer determines what the ratio should be between applications and data on his own servers and in the cloud, between private and public. The hybrid solution offers the flexibility and scalability to allow customers to change their chosen ratio between on-premise and cloud at any time. Moreover, customers are guaranteed that applications and data in the public cloud part are always located in Belgium, in the Proximus data centers.
