Deutsche Telekom : A private cloud made as easy as the public cloud

• Launch at DIGITAL X: VMware-based cloud service
• Six-week free trial

T-Systems is making the private cloud as flexible as the public cloud, all without the slightest compromise on security. At the upcoming DIGITAL X * companies can register to be part of a free trial. The trial phase is set to begin on December 1 and last for a maximum of six weeks.

At Digital X, T‑Systems will be launching the 'Multi & Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure and Management Framework', a product that is particularly suited to large corporations and larger SMEs. As a first step, T‑Systems is running a trial based on VMware cloud technology. This will allow customers to flexibly use private cloud capacity from a T‑Systems data center with the same look and feel as pubic cloud services. Services for Microsoft Azure Stack and Open Stack will follow later based on the same model. 'We offer companies the security and quality of the private cloud combined with the flexibility and speed of innovation of the public cloud,' explained Thomas Gierich of T-Systems. This gives companies the infrastructure they need for sector-specific requirements without forsaking the agility of the cloud. What's more: With the Multi & Hybrid Cloud Management customers can manage and control all their cloud services whether public or private, and obtain full transparency.

T-Systems experts are there to support customers throughout the trial phase. With this new solution, platform costs can be reduced by up to 25 percent. If you are interested, please contact your personal T‑Systems contact person. Or send an email to [e-mail].
