Feb 8, 2011 : Savvis Partners with Bharti Airtel
📅 - Company to launch its managed hosting and cloud services in India.
Savvis, Inc., a provider of cloud infrastructure and hosted IT solutions for enterprises, yesterday announced that it has joined forces with Bharti Airtel Limited, a global telecommunications company, to launch a major new strategic managed hosting and cloud computing initiative in India. The company says that the agreement will expand access to its wide range of managed hosting and cloud services to enterprises operating in or expanding into India. It will extend its infrastructure and service platforms in existing Airtel data centers throughout India and establish local operations teams to support both local and global clients.
It mentions that the company expects to begin the rollout of its services through Airtel's Bangalore data center in early 2011 with future expansion into other Airtel data centers located in New Delhi, Pune, Mumbai and Chennai. In addition to providing data center facilities and bandwidth capacity and network support, Airtel will resell the company's managed hosting and cloud services to India-based clients.
"India is a huge potential market that requires the scale and local reach that only Airtel with Savvis' enterprise-grade cloud platform can deliver," said Jim Ousley, Chairman and CEO of Savvis. "Our global clients have been asking us for capabilities in India, and partnering with Airtel enables us to provide the quality facilities and support both our clients and theirs require. This collaboration not only enables us to leverage Airtel's existing infrastructure and client reach, but also its reputation as one of the best known and admired brands in India."
"Our strategic partnership with Savvis is a major leap forward and will unlock the potential of the rapidly-growing hosted IT services market in the country," said Drew Kelton, President, Enterprise Services at Bharti Airtel. "Our world-class network connectivity and next generation data center architecture, combined with Savvis' technical expertise, will help us to offer best-in-class hosting and security services to our customers. This is a reiteration of our commitment of continuously offering innovative and scalable solutions for our customers in this dynamic business environment."
