The ALiX project is a proposal from the Cabildo de Tenerife (Council of Tenerife), led by the Instituto Tecnológico y de Energías Renovables (Technological Institute and of Renewable Energies), with the purpose of promoting the competitiveness of the island of Tenerife towards the global market of the information and communication technologies and improving the technological resources in the Canary Islands.〔(Tenerife has pioneering fibre optic systems installed )〕〔(New NAP data centre in Tenerife due to be completed in March )〕 In order to do so, four courses of action have been suggested: * Development and implementation of a data center in Tenerife, (D-ALiX, formerly NAPWACI), that will serve as a neutral point of traffic aggregation and distribution for three continents, in addition to a gateway for the South of Europe.〔(Foundation Stone of NAPWACI – all systems go for Network Access Point West Africa-Canary Islands — Canary PR )〕〔(Apparently Google Inc. plans huge relocation away from California )〕 * Constitution of a public carrier, dependant on the Cabildo de Tenerife, that will negotiate the terrestrial infraestructures upon the guidance of the Cabildo and, at the same time, new construction statements are agreed, putting them at the disposal of all carriers in order to promote competitiveness.〔(Tenerife set to join the 21st century in telecommunications )〕 * Participation of the Technological Institute of Telecommunications of Tenerife (IT3) in the installation and implementation of an alternative submarine cable in competitiveness with the main telecommunications carrier.〔(CanaLink and Alcatel-Lucent sign multi-million Euro contract to deploy 2000 km submarine cable network linking Canary Islands to Spain’s mainland )〕 * Promotion, through the Technological Institute of Telecommunications of Tenerife, of the arrival of new submarine cables which will link the island with Africa and, in the future, with Latin America.〔(Oasis Fm – Tenerife's official British radio station )〕 Included in the initiative of the ALiX Project is the D-ALiX (formerly Neutral Access Point of Western Africa and Canary Islands). This high availability data center is situated in the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands).〔http://www.canarypr.com/tenerife/foundation-stone-of-napwaci-all-systems-go-for-network-access-point-west-africa-canary-islands.htm〕〔http://www.totaltele.com/view.aspx?ID=455434〕〔http://www.canarianweekly.com/localNews794.html〕〔http://www.telecomtv.com/comspace_newsDetail.aspx?n=46309&id=8234cf6f-2537-4abe-83c8-014d16263b6a#〕 The data center was awarded in the Datacenter Dynamics Awards 2010 ceremony due to its innovation.〔http://www.datacenterdynamics.com/focus/archive/2010/12/datacentre-leaders-awards-winners-announced〕 == Sources == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ALiX Project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
