Green Data Systems Opens Cloud Computing Lab

Green Data Systems announced the opening of a cloud computing laboratory to help businesses, government and research institutions and institutes of higher learning design, adopt and reap benefits of cloud technologies; for newer, faster, more efficient ways to compete and grow. The new lab housed in Deventer, Netherlands is part of Green Data Systems’s expansion of its cloud computing capabilities and services around Europe.

Through briefings, technology deployment and development sessions, the Green Data Systems Cloud lab will work with partners, government and research institutions and institutes of higher learning to design and deploy their own cloud environments. The lab will help these clients deploy first-of-a-kind solutions that increase business responsiveness, lower IT operating and capital costs, provide an open and elastic IT environment, enable real-time data streams and information sharing, and provide globally available resources.

Specifically, the adoption of private, public or hybrid cloud environments can help organisations reduce IT management complexity and skill requirements; share resources among multiple applications; accelerate time to market; and support both existing and emerging, data-intensive workloads. A cross section of Europe’s industries will benefit from cloud computing, where key industries such as banking, education, healthcare, government and telecommunications are likely to be early adopters.

Green Data Systems pursues energy efficiency in data centers and provides customers with optimal data centre capacity, cooling, managed services, SAN, security, server, software and data storage technology as well as services for green data centers and resellers in Europe.

Wessel Graatsma, CEO of Green Data Systems, said: “We are very enthusiastic about the opening of this unique and highly energy efficient cloud computing lab. We believe that the lab will help our customers and partners to deploy first-of-a-kind solutions that increase business responsiveness, lower IT operating and capital costs, provide an open and elastic IT environment, enable real-time data streams and information sharing, and provide globally available resources.”

The site will also be a showcase of cloud technologies for energy efficient data centers to customers throughout Continental Europe.
