The FINANCIAL — Customers can now put together and use infrastructure services dynamically according to their requirements within minutes using a portal operated by T-Systems.
This makes CPU-intensive research projects or simulations possible at short notice without having to own the necessary hardware. These dynamic infrastructure services are billed on an hourly basis. The service is free for T-Systems customers during the pilot phase (November 2010 through February 2011).
The offer combines the benefits of the cloud approaches used in the public sector with those from the high-security business customer sector: Access controls, data security and protection, defined Service Level Agreements, full scalability and attractive prices. All data centers, and consequently all customer data, are located in Germany, certified according to ISO standard 27001 for security and also audited by customers. Each customer's applications are logically separated and additional security precautions protect against access via the Internet.
Customers can combine other services from the T-Systems portfolio with the IaaS offering (Infrastructure as a Service). They can obtain information about the system uptime, resources used, processor and storage capacity, and costs from the customer portal.
Customers can choose from a selection of platforms in T-Systems data centers. They can simply access pre-configured systems and modify these to suit their requirements. The service is based on an x86 architecture that supports 32 Bit and 64 Bit operating systems and applications.
