OREANDA-NEWS. The Telekom cloud is also becoming a best seller internationally. In the past few weeks, T-Systems has concluded contracts worth millions of euros in Africa and Europe. Here, companies rely on the service quality of the Telekom subsidiary and Germany’s high security standards in particular.

Hence, Africa’s leading glass manufacturer, Johannesburg-based Consol, has extended its contract for another five years. Since 2007, T-Systems has provided all SAP applications from the cloud. The services and costs required can therefore be adapted to the normal seasonal fluctuations in glass production. Consol pays for the data and storage services it actually uses.

In Spain, Deutsche Telekom is modernizing the IT systems of the Eulen Group. In the future, one of the world's leading providers of general services to companies will obtain all of its IT services from the T-Systems cloud. Eulen, which specializes in cleaning, security, temporary work, environmental, healthcare and maintenance activities, will save up to 40 percent of its IT costs by switching from classic outsourcing to the dynamic model.

In Belgium, Pioneer Europe extended its contract with T-Systems for SAP services from the cloud by an additional four years. The international electronics group receives the IT capacities it requires in Europe from a T-Systems high-security data center in Germany. All data and storage services are provided redundantly and with high availability. The high fail-safety of IT systems in the cloud convinced Pioneer to streamline its service level agreements in the new contract and thereby save on IT costs.

The leading Austrian software provider Fabasoft outsources its IT infrastructure to twin data centers (Twin-Core) from T-Systems. The two-year contract for the operation of data centers for the Linz-based company includes the provision of data center space for the cloud infrastructure, the complete relocation of the servers and redundant Internet access from the data centers.
