Verio
Europe Partners With Oracle To Deliver European Hosting
Solution For On Demand Customers [September
30, 2004]
Englewood, Colo. and London, UK, September
30, 2004 - Verio Europe today announced a partnership
with Oracle Corporation to provide data hosting solutions
for Oracle's On Demand European customers. This partnership
enables Oracle's European customers to utilize the Oracle
on Demand service via local NTT/VERIO servers situated
in London, Frankfurt, Paris and Madrid.
Today's announcement will see the expansion
of the Oracle Grid to include Verio hosting solutions
delivered via NTT/VERIO data centers. The service will
be an exact replica of the service delivered from Oracle's
own data centers in other parts of the globe and is
based on an identical technology stack comprised of
Intel, Linux, Oracle Database and Application Servers,
and Oracle E-business and Collaboration Suite solutions.
By partnering with Verio, Oracle will
be able to offer its European customer base enhanced
security solutions, including managed firewalls and
intrusion detection. For those customers whose business
is electronic content delivery, Verio's Smart Content
Delivery' (SCD) solution will offer a platform that
significantly reduces businesses' network costs.
“Our On Demand service enjoys
a loyal customer base,” said Daniel Coetsier,
VP of EMEA On Demand at Oracle Corporation. “We
feel locating our servers in cities at the heart of
our European customers' activities adds significant
value. Oracle technology and applications are often
complex solutions integrated with third-party software.
Verio offers a one-stop shop to deliver a high-quality
managed service for these packages.”
In addition, Verio has strategic corporate
alliances with Microsoft, Cisco and Sun that enable
them to deliver a broad range of managed service solutions
to Oracle's customers.
“Businesses in Europe that run
Oracle can now take advantage of this next-generation
Oracle delivery platform,” said Martin Davis,
VP of sales and marketing for Verio. “Together
with an enhanced package of integrated service management,
security and reliability, Oracle's European customers
can access the entire Oracle On Demand suite across
the NTT Communications' global IP backbone, the industry's
most scalable and secure data network.”
