Rackspace Technology™ (NASDAQ: RXT), a
leading end-to-end multicloud technology solutions company, has
been selected by GEANT’s new procurement framework, Open Clouds for
Research Environments (OCRE), to provide Amazon Web Services (AWS)
solutions to European Researchers.
GEANT, one of the world’s largest research and education
networks, made the selection as part of the OCRE IaaS+ tender for
commercial cloud services that will empower research institutions
and universities to move their IT environments to the cloud.
Until now, European Researchers and the wider Educational
Community have had their digital transformations held back due to
the absence of procurement frameworks and technical skills. As a
result of the OCRE project, the strong demand for commercial cloud
services can now be met. Organisations that require AWS
capabilities in 38 countries across Europe will be supported by
Rackspace Technology expertise, which includes 14 AWS competencies
and with 1,600 certifications.
“As European research institutions and universities seek to
accelerate their journey to the cloud, the OCRE project removes
barriers creating a seamless connection into the IT ecosystem,”
said Mahesh Desai, Chief Relationship Officer, EMEA at Rackspace
Technology.
“Rackspace Technology has exceptional managed services expertise
within the AWS cloud environment and has delivered truly valuable
business outcomes for customers across EMEA. As an integral partner
of AWS and we’re excited to begin empowering these organisations to
enhance their capabilities through the cloud.”
