Telefónica has extensive experience offering cloud services to its B2B customers.

Telefónica offers its customers the commercial service "Telefónica Tech Cloud Platform" (hereinafter, TTCP), a proprietary cloud solution developed and evolved internally for more than 15 years.

The concept of Sovereign Cloud is an international concept, but it has special emphasis in the European Union, since the aim is to have autonomy and independence from supply and jurisdictions external to the EU.

Our current TTCP catalog is mainly focused on the IaaS business. Telefónica is working on building a new line of PaaS products to complement the current TTCP catalog, with the aim of providing a more complete experience to our customers. The benefits of the new PaaS products include, among others:

Infrastructure abstraction: Hiding the complexity of installing, updating, and maintaining the underlying hardware and software.

Ready-to-consume services: Providing pre-integrated platform capabilities (databases, messaging, functions, workflows, etc.) that are immediately and standardly accessible.

Automation by design: Incorporating automated provisioning, deployment, scaling, updating, and operations.

Unified development experience: Offering APIs, tools, portals, and low-code/no-code environments that accelerate development and reduce time to production.

Secure, resilient, and multi-tenant platform: Guaranteeing tenant isolation, high availability, observability, security, and governance as native platform capabilities.

The objective of this newly created Product Manager position is to capture the new business opportunity around advanced computing technologies, expanding the offering of our own Distributed Sovereign Cloud, and offering standardized solutions for Private Clouds for clients.
