Prague, September 26, 2013 – GTS Central Europe (GTS), a leading provider of integrated telecommunications solutions and data center services throughout Central and Eastern Europe, has been selected by GeoPost Group, a market leader in express parcels delivery services for B2B & B2C customers in Europe, to deliver a customized cloud platform for their Business Intelligence platform throughout Europe. This new 5 year agreement is a milestone in the long-term collaboration between the two companies.
“We needed a trusted and reliable partner that could handle our strict technical requirements and aggressive installation timeframe,” said Philippe Cassan, Director for Information Security at GeoPost. “GTS designed and implemented a scalable, flexible and secure cloud platform with high availability and the improved operational efficiency of our critical GeoTrack application.”
GeoPost is utilizing an integrated range of GTS services in the Czech Republic spanning network infrastructure, data center, IaaS workloads and security to support their GeoTrack systems and applications, which will track and maintain cross-border consignment delivery data for GeoPost and its subsidiaries. This new high-performance environment, utilizing clusters of virtual machines and dedicated data warehouse systems, enables GeoPost to provide its customers real-time visibility to account and package delivery information through the cloud.
“More and more IT leaders are pressured to support an increased number of mission-critical applications with fewer resources. This causes businesses to seek out cloud solutions as a way to effectively and efficiently expand core operations without spending significant capital,” states David Sita, Managing Director of GTS Czech. “DPD Czech, a GeoPost subsidiary, has been a long-standing customer of GTS and we are excited to extend our business relationship to the GeoPost Group.”
