Mit dem SmartHub ist Etisalat vor kurzem eine regionale strategische Partnerschaft mit CDNetworks eingegangen, die größere Möglichkeiten für den E-Commerce und den Online-Einkauf in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten eröffnet.
Durch die Partnerschaft mit Etisalat sind die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate nun nach der Türkei, dem Irak, Katar und Saudi Arabien das zuletzt hinzugekommene Land im Nahen und Mittleren Osten, in dem CDNetworks einen Point-of-Presence (POP) unterhält. Weltweit verfügt CDNetworks über 140 POPs.
„70 Prozent der Einwohner der Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate sind online. Die Kunden von CDNetworks werden demnach in hohem Maße von der Partnerschaft mit Etisalat profitieren“, sagte Jeff Kim, COO für Nord-, Mittel- und Südamerika sowie Europa, Naher und Mittlerer Osten und Afrika bei CDNetworks. „Dieser die bereits im Nahen und Mittleren Osten vorhandenen ergänzende Point-of-Presence sorgt dafür, dass unsere Kunden, die dort vor Ort online Güter und Dienstleistungen anbieten, das bestmögliche Nutzererlebnis garantieren können.“
In den Vereinigten Emiraten gibt es eine große Zahl wohlhabender Kunden, die sich im Internet nach Waren umsehen und dort kaufen. Eine vor kurzem von MasterCard durchgeführte Studie fand heraus, dass Verbraucher in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten online nach Flugtickets, Hotelzimmern, Haushaltsgeräten sowie Bekleidungsaccessoires suchen. Nach Angaben des Internationalen Währungsfonds weisen die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate weltweit das siebthöchste BIP pro Kopf des Jahres 2011 auf. Der Zentralbank zufolge wird dieses im Jahr 2012 möglicherweise um 3,5 Prozent wachsen. Ein bedeutender Markt für die Kunden von CDNetworks aus dem Einzelhandel und der Reisebranche ist demnach vorhanden.
„Wir freuen uns, diese Partnerschaft mit CDNetworks einzugehen“, sagte Ali Amiri, Executive Vice President für Carrier- und Großkundendienstleistungen bei Etisalat VAE. „Die Verbindung unserer belastbaren SmartHub-Infrastruktur und der globalen Cloudbeschleunigung von CDNetworks ermöglicht die Bereitstellung eines reichhaltigen Angebotes im Land und beschert den Internetnutzern in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten so ein verbessertes Nutzererlebnis.“
„Durch diese und weitere Partnerschaften machen wir die neuesten ICT-Anwendungen mithilfe unserer SmartHub-Infrastruktur zugänglich. Diese werden wir auch in Zukunft weiterentwickeln, um unsere Spitzenposition zu halten“, sagte Herr Amiri.

By Jeremy Geelan “Regulations and compliance are key trust topics with regards to cloud solutions and technology,” noted Sven Denecken, Vice President, Strategy and Co-Innovation Cloud Solutions, SAP AG, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “But it is also more than security of access – it is portability of data and a clear definition of where the data resides.”

By Jeremy Geelan IT has more opportunities than ever before with the growth in users, devices, data and secure cloud services. This creates not only a more enriching experience for users, but more opportunities for businesses. The key to capitalizing on these opportunities is to have the right tools in place to help scale operations.

By Elizabeth White One of the cloud’s biggest draws is the capability to virtualize computing resources, allowing it to be consumed with the click of a mouse. But behind that simple click is an enormous infrastructure challenge that has recently been cited as a major cause for slower enterprise adoption. Enterprises can better prepare for this shift and take full advantage of future computing benefits. Between architecture design and migration planning, the road can be long, so what do you do with your talent?

By Pat Romanski In the old world of IT, if you didn't have hardware capacity or the budget to buy more, your project was dead in the water. Budget constraints can leave some of the best, most creative and most ingenious innovations on the cutting room floor. It’s a true dilemma for developers and innovators – why spend the time creating, when a project could be abandoned in a blink? That was the old world. In the new world of IT, developers rule. They have access to resources they can spin up instantly.

By Liz McMillan “I’m careful when using terms like Big Data, because it can mean so many things to different people,” explained Eric Hanselman, Chief Analyst at 451 Research, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “There is huge value in analytics that companies can use to pull intelligence from a collection of data sources that are available in their businesses. The inexpensive storage that cloud services can offer make a great environment to pull together siloed data.”
