Vonage, part of Ericsson, is partnering with communications service provider Singtel to integrate Vonage’s API (application programming interface) platform with Singtel’s orchestration platform Paragon to boost innovation opportunities for enterprises and telcos through access to a global ecosystem of rich communications, network and edge APIs.
Paragon-enabled telcos from Singapore, Thailand, Spain, Taiwan and Indonesia will be able to integrate Vonage and Paragon APIs into a globally unified telco and edge API library.
Global independent software vendors (ISVs), enterprises and developers can leverage the APIs to deliver digital services at greater speed and scale over hybrid networks, hybrid edge and public cloud infrastructures across multiple markets.
Niklas Heuveldop, Vonage CEO and Head of Business Area Global Communications Platform, Ericsson, says: “We are pleased to announce our partnership with Singtel as we continue to collaborate with frontrunner service providers globally to drive an open ecosystem for exponential innovation and network monetization. By combining Vonage’s API platform, Ericsson’s 5G network capabilities and Singtel’s Paragon platform, we are paving the way for developers to pioneer new solutions for enterprises to reimagine their business, improve customer experiences and create new communications and engagement capabilities.”
Bill Chang, CEO, Singtel Digital InfraCo, says: “Through this strategic partnership with Vonage, enterprises and developers can tap into APIs and collaborate with Paragon-enabled telcos to jointly develop and seamlessly deploy applications into more countries, without needing to repeatedly adapt or change their applications for different markets. This streamlined approach enables telcos and enterprises to focus on growth and innovation according to their business needs and offers vast opportunities for their ISVs and partners to expand service delivery into more countries, with greater ease, speed and scale.”
