The new Nordic network taking shape

The new Nordic network taking shape

A more powerful, more resilient and more affordable Nordic network for research and education is taking shape. The new NORDUnet network is based on collaboration and infrastructure sharing.

Collaboration and sharing are key elements to solving the challenge of delivering more capacity and redundancy for less money. Fortunately, that is something the Nordic NRENs have extensive experience in doing, both on technical and on financial levels. So, the step-by-step transition to the Next Generation NORDUnet network is well under way, and it will evolve and adjust in the coming years. Preparations began in 2017 and the work continues according to plan. More details about the new network can be found here.
