Eurecom join the Charm Partner Programme

by Ellen Arnold on 21 May 2015

Canonical are excited to announce that Eurecom, a graduate school and research centre in Communication Systems, is the newest member of the Charm Partner Programme. Eurecom will be working with Canonical to charm OpenAirInterface, an open­source platform allowing for experimentation in wireless systems, with a particular focus on cellular technologies.

The charm will allow OpenAirInterface users to take advantage of all the benefits Juju, the universal service modeling tool from Canonical, offers. Juju allows developers to design their application architecture like they would on a virtual whiteboard, with boxes for services, and lines to connect them. The Juju Charm Store has over 300 cloud based applications ready to be deployed, scaled and managed on most public and private clouds, as well as bare metal.

“By partnering with Canonical, we will be making it even easier for our users to utilise our platform in a repeatable, reusable and scaleable way,” said Christian Bonnet from Eurecom and President of the OpenAirInterface Software Alliance.

“OpenAirInterface is an exciting addition to our Charm Partner Program, and further strengthens our telco solution portfolio. With the inclusion of their charm, Juju users will now be able to experiment with wireless technologies in a drag and drop environment,“ said John Zannos, VP of Cloud Alliances at Canonical.

Canonical’s Charm Partner Programme helps solution providers make best use of Canonical’s universal service modeling tool, Juju; enabling instant workload deployment, integration, and scaling at the click of a button. Juju makes it easy to deliver complete solutions in minutes, on virtually any public or private cloud.
