Major Bertiport provider skyport infrastructure Outsourced Cloud-Driven Digital Transformation Managed Service Provider (MSP) node 4 Provides the IT network components and data analysis capabilities required to operate Vertiport. The deal will see Node4 supporting his Skyports infrastructure through the construction of global SD-WAN capabilities. SD-WAN is expected to go live at its first UK location later this year, eventually covering additional locations in the UK and expanding to his Skyports infrastructure facilities in the US, Dubai and France. SD-WAN provides the technology and connectivity that enables global Vertiport operations for Skyports infrastructure.
SD-WAN enables faster deployment at each of the company’s vertiport facilities, while centralizing and streamlining remote operations, allowing the Skyports infrastructure to monitor and manage the vertiport network in near real-time. increase. SD-WAN provides reliable availability and performance along with centralized management and strong network security.
“Everyone at Node4 is very easy to work with. The team is friendly, flexible and always goes above and beyond for us. Node4 brings their in-house expertise in Skyports infrastructure to It also provides valuable guidance to build on.” said Dan Lambeth, Site Reliability Engineer at Skyports Infrastructure. “We have a long technology journey ahead of us, and with the support of key technology partners such as Node4 and the insights they provide, this journey will go smoothly. With months of technology development, we are in a great position to keep pace with our vertiport technology products.”
Skyports Infrastructure’s IT team will also benefit from Node4’s extensive cloud-based knowledge. Node4 has so far assisted Skyports infrastructure in building and configuring several Azure landing zones for custom vertiport IT systems and software development, now it will be easier for vertiport partners and operators to connect and collaborate. , enabling the development of the APIs needed to allow data to be shared. In addition, Node4 is a large-scale cloud-based data warehouse project designed to store, retrieve, and facilitate analysis of aircraft telemetry and flight data (such as weather information and best route information) within the Skyports infrastructure. is supporting
Node4 CCO Iain Shearman said: “We are pleased to help fulfill Skyport Infrastructure’s mission to make electric air taxi travel a reality and play a key role in supporting the development and operation of Vertiport.” Network Infrastructure Solutions combined with our Azure and database experience could lead to such a rethinking of city travel.How this project develops and the infrastructure of Skyport not too far away. I can’t wait to take my first eVTOL flight out of Bertieport. future! “
