Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen soft media user 1520111 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com Google today announced plans for Nuvem, a new transatlantic submarine cable system linking Portugal, Bermuda and the United States.

▲ Source Google CTOnews.com learned from Google's press release that the submarine cable was named "Nuvem" after the Portugal word for "cloud." Google said that 95 percent of the world's data flows are currently transmitted through submarine optical cables, which are said to "improve network resilience across the Atlantic Ocean, help meet growing demand for digital services, increase diversity of international routes, and support the development of related communications technology infrastructure."

"Bermuda has long been committed to the submarine cable market and we welcome Nuvem submarine cables into our fast-growing digital Atlantic hub," said Walter Roban, Bermuda's Deputy Premier and Home Minister. Bermuda looks forward to working with Google on cable projects and broader partnerships to harness the benefits of digital infrastructure investments.

João Galamba, Minister of Infrastructure of Portugal, said,"Google's investment combines our vision for Portugal in the field of telecommunications and data, promoting strong links with other regions. The Government of Portugal considers this investment very important. "

Our goal is to transform these information superhighways into catalysts that attract complementary investments in cutting-edge technology areas and drive effective digital transformation of the country. This desire has been a strong focus for us in recent months, driving our efforts to attract such investments by improving our communications infrastructure and developing a clear roadmap for the industry.

Nuvem, which is expected to go live in 2026, will increase data transfer capacity, improve reliability and reduce latency for Google users and Google Cloud customers worldwide. Together with Firmina and Equiano, it will create important new data corridors connecting North America, South America, Europe and Africa.
