T-Systems Working With Cisco To Operate Single Platform Cloud

T-Systems

T-Systems, the IT services and consulting company owned by Deutsche Telecom, will operate all cloud solutions on a single platform, says the company. With the new Dynamic Cloud Platform (DCP) customers will have standardized access to all cloud offers such as Infrastructure as a Service, Collaboration as a Service and Software as a Service. T-Systems has worked with Cisco to build the platform.

The company says it will gradually migrate systems that were spread over multiple cloud platforms to the new environment. T-Systems will launch new cloud solutions exclusively on the new DCP in the future.

T-Systems plans to roll out the platform to its data center in Houston (USA) later this year, followed by Frankfurt. If demand rises Magdeburg (Germany) will be next, as well as a data center in the Asia-Pacific region.
