- Analyst firm PAC attests global leadership to Deutsche Telekom subsidiary
- 2.6 million SAP users rely on services from the cloud
- Cloud revenues grow by 40 percent
T-Systems runs the world's largest cloud platform for SAP. Analyst firm Pierre Audoin Consultants (PAC) confirmed this in a recent comparison: "With more than 40 million SAPS (SAP Application Performance Standard) and more than 2.6 million productive SAP users T-Systems provides the basic operation and the biggest cloud-hosting platform for SAP landscapes worldwide." Cloud computing is a growth area for Deutsche Telekom overall. "T-Systems increased its cloud business well over average," said Dr. Ferri Abolhassan, director of T-Systems‘ IT division. Cloud revenues increased by some 40 percent in the last fiscal year.
In the past, PAC had already counted T-Systems, the corporate customer division of Deutsche Telekom, among the best SAP hosting providers. The largest user figures in the world prove that its customers are also highly satisfied with the quality and availability of the company's SAP services. In total, T-Systems serves more than 5 million users at 500 companies, 2.6 million of which are now served flexibly from the cloud. Some 80 percent of new customers for SAP services now elect for the dynamically adaptable services from a high-security private cloud.
T-Systems is presenting a number of cloud services at CeBIT 2015 (hall 4). The spectrum includes cloud infrastructure such as vCloud and Cisco InterCloud, platforms such as the SAP HANA big data solution and even applications such as data orchestration from the cloud.
The Telekom cloud - versatile, easy, secure
Since 2005, Deutsche Telekom and its subsidiary T-Systems have offered secure end-to-end cloud solutions for companies of all sizes – from consulting to implementation, billing and customer service through to maintenance. Telekom's growing partner ecosystem includes solutions from SAP, Microsoft, Cisco, Salesforce, VMWare, Oracle, SugarCRM and Informatica, and others. In addition to the classic network and IT infrastructure options, Telekom offers three cloud portals for all needs: Using the two public app stores Business Marketplace and Business Marketplace for Enterprise, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and corporate customers have access to a number of certified business applications from the Telekom cloud which they can test online, order and immediately use. The Cloud Integration Center gives corporate customers the ability to manage their entire IT landscape from the highly secure private cloud: Both individual IT components and booked applications and services can be centrally managed and easily administered via the portal. On all cloud portals, customers only pay for what they actually use.
