Microsoft acquires Lumenisity
By MYBRANDBOOK
Microsoft has acquired Lumenisity Limited, a leader in next-generation hollow core fiber (HCF) solutions, helping in expanding Microsoft’s ability to further optimize its global cloud infrastructure and serve Microsoft’s Cloud Platform and Services customers with strict latency and security requirements.
Lumenisity’s next generation of HCF uses a proprietary design where light propagates in an air core, which has significant advantages over traditional cable built with a solid core of glass, including:
· Increased overall speed and lower latency as light travels through HCF 47% faster than standard silica glass.
· Enhanced security and intrusion detection due to Lumenisity’s innovative inner structure.
· Lower costs, increased bandwidth and enhanced network quality due to elimination of fiber nonlinearities and broader spectrum.
· Potential for ultra-low signal loss enabling deployment over longer distances without repeaters.
The technology can provide benefits across a broad range of industries including healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, retail and government. With the rise of the digital economy, HCF could help international financial institutions seeking fast, secure transactions across a broad geographic region.
For the public sector, HCF could provide enhanced security and intrusion detection for federal and local governments across the globe. In healthcare it could help accelerate medical image retrieval, facilitating providers’ ability to ingest, persist and share medical imaging data in the cloud because HCF can accommodate the size and volume of large data sets.
Lumenisity was formed as a spinoff from the world-renowned Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) to commercialize the advancement in the development of hollow core optical fiber. As part of the Lumenisity acquisition, Microsoft plans to utilize the organization’s technology and team of industry-leading experts to accelerate innovations in networking and infrastructure.
