Nu-âhj: French, meaning ‘cloud’ is a division acquired by the venerable Alcatel Lucent, presented to the delegates around their Network Virtualized Services Platform (VSP). The goal of Nuage is to deliver the instantiation of networks on demand when a workload requires it. The key focus of this presentation was rapid provisioning and providing an alternative for ISP or large enterprise to not rely on the lock in of Amazon Web Services (AWS).
