SAP AG has awarded T-Systems the worldwide “SAP-Certified in Cloud Services” certificate. This makes the Deutsche Telekom subsidiary one of the first providers to offer its “Dynamic Services for SAP® Solutions “, on the market since 2004, within a cloud environment certified by SAP.

“T-Systems has demonstrated considerable maturity in the field of standardisation and automation of virtualised SAP environments.

Says Ryan Skipp, head of global data centre technology architecture at T-Systems in South Africa: “The fact that our cloud services are now SAP certified provides us with an endorsement by the vendor. This gives our local customers  the assurance that our SAP cloud offering is recognised and supported by SAP and we will continue to work closely together in future to improve our tailored offerings for various sectors.

More than 100 companies currently purchase their SAP applications from T-Systems via network as required. The solution is based on a platform that is open to all common operating systems and on which the customers’ SAP environments are run virtualised. This makes the applications available in a flexible, standardised and automated manner worldwide from the private cloud.
