Sprint Nextel Corporation (NYSE:S) also added the iPhone to its collection of phones at the end of 2011, making the company better able to compete with AT&T and Verizon. Sprint reported selling 6.6 million iPhones in 2012, 40% of which were to new customers. The biggest piece of news for Sprint right now is that it has agreed to be purchased by Japanese telecommunication giant SoftBank. To find out what this transaction will do to the share price, you can read this Forbes article, but for the purposes of this article, all you need to know is that this deal would give Sprint an extra $8 billion in capital to help with Network Vision. Sprint's CEO expects the company to begin being profitable in fiscal year 2014.

Vonage customers who dialed 911 got only a fast busy signal. Holder said Vonage has solved the predicament by partnering with Intrado, a company most major telephone carriers already use to match a call to its location. Vonage is the first Net telephony service provider Intrado has signed up, but Holder expects his competitors to also sign deals. Vonage's 20,000 customers will now be asked to provide their address, city, state and ZIP code, which will be kept inside Intrado's databases. When a 911 call is dialed, Vonage will bounce the call to Intrado, which will attach the street address. Vonage finishes routing the call. Worldwide, there were about 2.93 million cable telephony subscribers in 2001, more than the 2.5 million most analysts were predicting, according to a study last year by Allied Business Intelligence, an Oyster Bay, N.Y.-based research firm. That number was expected to almost double by the end of 2002, reaching 5.2 million subscribers, the study predicted.

This is what puts spaces above the other open source document management applications. Much like SharePoint and the free Windows SharePoint Services (WSS), O3Spaces contains the concept of workspaces. Exactly as you'd expect, these are working areas document repositories created for a particular task or project. In addition to document storage, a workspace contains a set of standard collaboration tools. These include team calendaring and a discussion forum for communications and dispute resolutions, and Microsoft bashing (we're kidding!).

T-Mobile ( TMUS ) shares rose after the telecom-services giant, touting 2 million subscriber adds, posted better-than-expected earnings and guidance. Shares of the Bellevue, Wash., company at last check were up 6.3% to $124.62. The stock on Friday has traded up as much as 8.3%, above $127. That's a 52-week high, double the 52-week low of $63.50, set in mid-March. T-Mobile posted earnings of $1.25 billion, or $1 a share, compared with $870 million, or $1 a share, in the year-earlier period. Revenue increased 75% to $19.27 billion from $11.06 billion. A survey of analysts polled by FactSet expected earnings of 46 cents a share on sales of $18.3 billion. The company added 2.03 million subscribers in the third quarter. Of them, 1.98 million were postpaid customers, which generally are more valuable to the telecom-service providers than prepaid customers because they're less likely to switch to rival providers. "Customers are choosing T-Mobile in record numbers," Chief Executive Mike Sievert said in a statement.

Because of Dell's history of antagonism toward the channel, many solution providers remain suspicious of the vendor. But Crotty said Dell's managed-services efforts ultimately will help. "I think it's goodness because it's going to bring end-user awareness to the market," Crotty told The Channel Insider during Ingram Micro's VentureTech Network (VTN) this week in New Orleans. "Dell's got a competitive offering. It's going to be good." Dell competitors, in contrast, have kept to what Crotty called an "old-school" approach to by so far forgoing comprehensive managed services initiatives. "They're still applying kind of an old-school channel program development and distribution-engagement model," he said. During a presentation at the VTN event, Gartner analyst Tiffani Bova pointed out that major vendors have fallen behind on managed services while smaller alternative vendors have jumped in. She encouraged solution providers to work with those alternative vendors.

A lot of hyperscalers, cloud builders, and even some smaller telco service providers buy chips and have OEMs build their switching or adapter gear for them, so Mellanox sells a lot of raw parts. It is very likely that for the foreseeable future sales of chips and boards will far outstrip sales of finished switches. (But to be fair, a ConnectX adapter is a board, but it is largely a finished product. Mellanox should have a raw chips category, a finished board category, a finished switch category, and an other category to do this right.)

This change in customer management is considered a huge opportunity by the finance & accounting business process outsourcing service providers. Leading vendors such as Tech Mahindra, Wipro, Infosys Ltd, and TCS are increasingly incorporating AI and blockchain technologies to provide a differentiated offering to their clients. Favorable government initiatives are also paving the way for the growth of the overall outsourcing market in India. For instance, in May 2020, the Government of India under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) launched the MeitY Startup Hub (MSH) portal that aims to encourage technological innovation, startups, and the development of intellectual properties. Similarly, in the Philippines, lower labor costs, competitive IT infrastructure, a highly educated and skilled workforce, and favorable tax incentives are some of the factors driving the growth of the financial and accounting (F&A) business process outsourcing (BPO) industry.

TORONTO, April 20 /CNW/ - Print service providers looking to expand their digital businesses now have two new options to produce sophisticated, full-colour sales collateral, direct-marketing pieces and photo publishing products - the Xerox Color 800/1000 Presses. The systems - printing 80- and 100-pages-per-minute respectively - can produce high definition image quality on a wide range of paper stock. An optional clear dry ink station, a feature exclusive to these devices within the Xerox colour portfolio, amplifies full-colour jobs. This clear, dry ink allows for images and text to be highlighted for visual impact, or digital watermarks applied for artistic effect or security. It is also beneficial for variable-data applications using Xerox's XMPie software, as it displays personalized content in more vivid ways.

In contract negotiations, Verizon asked to consolidate more call centers and route more calls overseas to facilitate outsourcing. The company also wants to redeploy existing technicians away from their homes for months at a time to service its network, which CWA sees as a deliberate effort to force workers to quit. Verizon deems this all necessary because its landline business is hemorrhaging customers, as people cut the cords on their home phones. Verizon lost 1.4 million landline subscribers just last year. But the super-fast FiOS broadband network, also considered part of the wireline business, is booming, with sales up 9 percent last year. While total gross revenue was down 1.8 percent in 2015, the overall business made $8.9 billion. Only $300 million in savings came from reducing employee costs, according to Verizon's own figures. In other words, the wireline business remains very profitable.

The companies refused to disclose exactly what their costs would be. FCC Commissioner William Kennard and other FCC commissioners have said they wished to complete their review process by the end of the year. But in a letter sent to Steve Case's AOL Time Warner on Tuesday, the commission didn't sound as if the Dec. 31 deadline was written in stone. The FCC said it hoped to finish up the process "as soon as possible." But it did not specify any deadline date. The five-member FCC is said to be weighing whether AOL should be forced to allow its Instant Messenger service to communicate with services offered by Microsoft and Yahoo! The FCC is the last hurdle for AOL Time Warner. The Federal Trade Commission approved the mega-merger last week after the companies agreed to let rival Internet service providers onto Time Warner's cable lines.

The news website recalled that Tillerson had reached out under the Iraq central government's nose into the leadership of the Kurdish administration to sign an oil deal. To put him in a position of power such as a US Secretary of State may mean he could further Exxon Mobil's ambitions but his early retirement -- and should he forfeit his Exxon holdings -- could soothe notions of building an oil empire.

South African telecom companies have agreed to work with the government to cut the cost of phone calls and Internet access in Africa's biggest economy, the government said on November 01. But it declined to say what steps would be taken to bring down tariffs, which President Thabo Mbeki has said deter investors and impede the availability of communications to the country's millions of poor and isolated people. The government said in a statement it had met with state-controlled fixed-line carrier Telkom as well as mobile firms Vodacom, MTN and Cell C, plus smaller operators running networks in rural areas. "Partipants at the meeting committed to working together to find a workable solution to the immediate concerns on the costs of telecommunication services and service delivery in South Africa," the department of communications said in a statement. Consumer groups and smaller telecoms and IT companies say South Africa has been slow to reform its communications industry and argue more competition is needed.

Through a residency with Red Hat Open Innovation Labs and use of Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, ANZ New Zealand reduced the time required for end-to-end DNS provisioning from six days to five minutes, a time savings of 99.4%. Faced with time-consuming routine and repeatable network operations tasks, ANZ New Zealand decided to transition to a cloud-first approach focused on automation and site reliability engineering. However, many of these IT business processes, including patching and provisioning servers, require a manual governance process around technical work. Automating these tasks can depend entirely on the adoption of new technology tools, IT processes and behavioral changes, which can be difficult to accomplish. Additionally, ANZ New Zealand sought to develop and establish a culture of new ways of collaborative working in order to support its commitment to talent acquisition and retention.

Instead, it mainly illustrated how an existing managed service is now available through the SoftLayer cloud, as well as through previous IBM consulting sources. At a future date, IBM will add Resiliency Consulting Services from the SoftLayer cloud. The consulting service can integrate legacy IT environments with either a private cloud or the SoftLayer public cloud infrastructure-as-a-service. The service will help companies assess what applications need greater resiliency and determine how to implement and test it. IBM is opening two new cloud-based resiliency centers in Raleigh, N.C., and Mumbai, India. These will join the 15 new SoftLayer datacenters that IBM plans to add this year. The announcement said IBM already operates 150 resiliency centers. Combined with the new additions, the resiliency service will be available in many locations around the globe, cutting network latencies and allowing data to remain close to its point of national origin.

"This stuff has got to hit hard at some point," said Bill Kimberlin, an Apple Store shopper from San Francisco. Apple, based in the Silicon Valley, just 50 miles south of San Francisco, outsources iPhone parts from around East Asia, and its handsets are assembled in China. Apple had to delay product rollouts first in 2020, when new gear was held up for a month because of China's first COVID-19 wave, said Rachel Liao, senior industry analyst with the Taipei-based Market Intelligence & Consulting Institute. In the first quarter this year, she said, lockdowns in China suspended assembly plants, including at least one operated by Pegatron. Pegatron is the No. 2 iPhone assembler, with 25% of orders, after Foxconn. Both companies are based in Taiwan but manufacture in China. Since 2020, the costs of making the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 series have increased "slightly" because of a materials shortage in the semiconductor supply chain, Liao said.

Under the old organizational structure, San Jose, Calif.-based Cisco had three specific lines of business: enterprise, service provider and commercial. According to Andrew Sage, director of marketing at Cisco Systems Canada Co. in Toronto, the need for separate lines of business no longer exists. Consolidation in the industry has blurred the lines and many products are no longer only used by one business category.

"We believe that the other large service provider firms are also experiencing short term pain in consulting, particularly in their ERP implementation practices as well as all of discretionary spending. However, the industry pipelines for new work are very full and all firms including Accenture are posting record bookings," said Peter Bendor-Samuel, chief executive, Everest Group, an IT advisory firm. Bendor-Samuel added: "What this translates into is another difficult quarter followed by strong growth likely starting in the later part of this year and certainly next year."

Wipro Cares engages with our proximate communities on the issues of Education for the underprivileged, primary health-care and environment. As I have mentioned before, I have irrevocably transferred about 39 percent of the ownership of Wipro to a Trust that supports philanthropic causes. The Trust will continue to engage closely with social issues. The excellence in business performance at Wipro would translate into value creation for shareholders, a substantial portion of which would be towards philanthropy. In 2015-16, Wipro achieved the milestone of its 70th anniversary and moved into its 71st year.

In a perfect world Gilat is hoping major connectivity service providers will pick up its antenna. It is discussing it "with everybody and we have this niche of having a Ku/Ka system which is sexy to a lot of service providers", says Barak. And how does the Gilat dual-band antenna compare to ViaSat's own hybrid antenna solution? "Technologically they are not much different," says Barak. "The issue with the ViaSat system, first thing it's very proprietary. It's tied up into the ViaSat architecture, it can practically work only with the ViaSat system." "The second problem that ViaSat are facing, to the best of my knowledge," he adds, "it is not a linefit system. It cannot fit into the linefit radomes. It could maybe fit into Arinc 791, but it doesn't fit under, for example, the Boeing tri-band radome or the Carlisle one that was selected by Airbus.

Serving as a complement to Zayo's existing long haul network, the Sacramento-to-Salt Lake City route enables diverse connectivity for enterprise, carrier, cable and content companies between major West Coast data center markets such as Los Angeles, Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area to the rest of the country. While Zayo won't release its fiscal fourth quarter 2016 earnings until Thursday, the service provider reported in the previous quarter that gross installs for the company's fiscal third quarter were $5.9 million and net installs were $2.1 million, driven by record low churn. Zayo has continued to find luck in constructing regional networks that address new customer opportunities in specific markets. In December 2015, Zayo conducted a similar build out between Omaha and Dallas, where it added a 1,000-mile intercity dark fiber route, passing through Tulsa and Kansas City.

However, many companies have a high debt-to-capital ratio, making cost management critical and asset sales likely as the companies try to reduce their capital burn rate, boost funds and increase cash flows. "The companies' priorities at present are to manage capital and conserve cash, while they wait out the storm," McCormick says. IDLE PRODUCTION North American coal producer Alpha Natural Resources in September temporarily idled eight coal mines in Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania, impacting about 1 200 jobs. The company says it is reshaping its mine operations to reduce the production footprint, as demand for thermal coal continues to decline as thermal power stations switch to cheaper natural gas. The miner expects its organisational streamlining to result in overhead cost savings of about $150-million, which include the $50-million to $60-million in cost reductions resulting from production cuts from four mines in Kentucky during June 2012, which also cost 150 jobs.

Q: What role do/will biosimilars play in Patheon's future? A: Biosimilars are part of the industry's future. We foresee a series of large market biosimilars being approved in the next few years. Cell culture manufacturing processes are more productive now than they were 15 to 20 years ago, and the scale and capacity required to manufacture these has decreased significantly. While biosimilars were historically manufactured in-house, outsourcing is now increasingly gaining favor. Patheon has accumulated expertise and experience working with innovator products for the past 10 years, as well as biosimilars in the past few years, so we are extremely well-positioned to take advantage of this opportunity with biosimilars. Q: What trends do you see driving the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry in the next few years? A : Outsourcing and consolidation will continue to influence the CDMO industry in the coming years.

This remains the case. Despite completing an MSc in Finance at Leeds University and undertaking another internship – this time an off-cycle internship in FX sales at J.P. Morgan for four months to December 2014, on top of stints at UBS, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Coutts and Goldman Sachs - Leander still doesn't have a permanent position as an analyst. This is despite being equipped with four A-levels from Eton, a BA in Russian and Economics, the MSc in Finance, five internships and, no doubt, the sort of connections desirable to investment banks. [efc_twitter text="Leander is not the only Cadbury to pursue a career in banking"]. James Cadbury, the great-great grandson of George Cadbury, is currently working as a trader for the Universities Superannuation Scheme. This is a role he got the hard way – from moving from a back office operations role at Barclays to the middle office at USS and finally a trading role earlier this year.

"Worldwide, bandwidth wasn't great, networks were dropping [voice] packets, and the adoption rate was low. "Now, bandwidth is pretty good, interoperability is solid now. We have enough bandwidth and the technology to do priority settings. We haven't heard [customers] complain about the quality of service (QoS)," he explained. Cisco made its intentions known in April this year when it acquired--for Linksys-- Sipura Technology for US$68 million. Sipura's technology was incorporated in some Linksys VoIP adapters, including those integrated into home routers and gateways, and a multi-line IP phone for the consumer and SOHO market. At the time of the announcement, Linksys said it would continue to work with the service providers that Sipura had already forged relationships with, as well as use its traditional retail channels to target consumers and SOHO environments with Sipura's VoIP products.
