March 28, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- IBM (ibm.com) announced on Friday that it has completed construction of a data center for Egypt-based telecommunications provider Telecom Egypt (telecomegypt.com).
Level 1 PCI DSS Certified Service Provider! DataPipe delivers the best network & support; top tier data centers; New York metro, Silicon Valley, London, Hong Kong, Shanghai. DataPipe - Personal Touch, Global Reach.
Telecom Egypt says it partnered with IBM in 2007 to design and build what it hoped would be the most sophisticated and energy-efficient data center in Egypt.
In order to manage the increased demand on its telecommunications network, Telecom Egypt says it needed a new state-of-the-art data center capable of housing its current IT solutions, yet flexible enough to support future growth.
"Telecom Egypt was convinced that IBM was the best choice because of IBM's standards and methodologies and the experience of the IBM team who worked as a trusted consultant," says Eng. Khaled Marmoush, CIO of Telecom Egypt. "IBM provided not only the information about data centers that Telecom Egypt was looking for, but also the technologies and services that are used in today's data centers."
IBM will be supporting Telecom Europe in managing the operation of the data center that runs mission critical business and operational support systems, in addition to the maintenance of a variety of telecommunications equipment.
IBM says that its solution for Telecom Egypt's energy efficient facility is part of "Project Big Green" a $1 billion initiative to dramatically reduce energy use by IBM and its clients. The initiative includes new energy efficient IBM products and services and a five-step approach to energy efficiency in the data center, says the company.
Telecom Egypt calls itself the leading telecommunications provider in Egypt, and the largest provider of fixed-line services in the Middle East with more than 10.4 million customers.
