Why Advantech
As information and communications technologies converge, accelerated by the virtualization of applications in the cloud and the consolidation of fixed function elements throughout the network, the ICT industry finds itself in the midst of a tectonic shift where new strategies, partnerships and business models are set to transform today’s network infrastructure. A software defined, all-IP infrastructure that promises to be extremely agile, and infinitely reconfigurable is in the making. One that will open the doors to a whole new class of flexible on-demand services.
Advantech Networks & Communications Group is at the core of that transformation, enabling the transition from fixed function, proprietary devices to open architecture Intel®-based network appliances, then on to universal networking platforms and building blocks that will constitute the servers, gateways, firewall appliances, switches and routers of the future.
