“This extended partnership with Huawei, allows us to bring a new level of innovation to the local market. As a multi cloud provider, we have already been delivering high levels of service quality and price compatibility from our current local Datacentres; OTC will enhance our cloud portfolio and allow us to offer hyper scale computing capabilities on the open stack platform that can rival other global cloud offerings,” Gert Schoonbee, MD of T-Systems South Africa, said on Thursday at the announcement of the partnership at the Huawei Eco Connect conference held at the Sandton Convention Centre, Johannesburg.

“Given that we are deploying OTC locally in South Africa, we will be retaining the revenue in the country, moreover, it enables us to fully comply with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI). In all, we are ecstatic about this as it brings simplicity, security and affordability to our customers.”

This partnership, which will see T-Systems adding a new, transformational public cloud offering to its existing portfolio.

T-Systems South Africa has been offering secure end-to-end cloud solutions since 2005, from consulting, implementation, billing and customer service through to maintenance

“Huawei has enjoyed a successful partnership with leading global ICT provider, T-Systems, working together on the OTC offering in European and Asian markets,” Huawei Channel Director of Huawei Enterprise Business Group for Southern Africa, Daniel Liu, says.

“T-Systems South Africa has a strong focus on delivering quality ICT to South Africa and African markets and together we aim to focus on accelerating digital transformation within these borders.”

With OTC, the ICT solutions provider plans to extend its cloud solution offering with a growing strategic partner ecosystem that includes SAP, Microsoft, Huawei and Oracle.

“Our customers are discovering the advantages of the public cloud, but they want a local alternative,” said Schoonbee. “With the Open Telekom Cloud we can offer a local solution that is simple, secure, affordable, and, that will benefit from the international R&D and development road map of Deutsche Telekom.”

T-Systems and Huawei plan to start taking customers onto OTC in the 4th Quarter of 2017.
