KMD will now be able to offer its customers a European and future-proof mainframe setup hosted by German T-Systems. The two companies recently completed the final phase of technical preparations, and many customers are already fully operational.
Following a successful and well-executed transition, KMD and T-Systems have now finalized the implementation of a new joint mainframe setup. The solution, hosted in T-Systems' data centers in Germany, marks a significant milestone for both companies and paves the way for further collaboration.
For KMD, the new setup is a crucial element in ensuring both operational stability and future development at a time when the demands for digital solutions and data security are increasing.
In a time marked by geopolitical uncertainty and growing demands for data sovereignty, it’s more important than ever to have strong and reliable partners. T-Systems has proven to be a highly professional partner, and I’m pleased that we can now offer our customers a future-proof and European-based mainframe solution.
The agreement not only gives KMD’s customers access to a modern and robust infrastructure but also opens new commercial opportunities, explains Ruth Wisborg, Executive Vice President for KMD Services.
“With the move to a z16 platform, we now have a technical setup that enables us to further develop our services and support customers in new ways. It creates a strong foundation for growth and differentiation in the mainframe services market, which continues to play a vital role in several key societal systems," says Ruth Wisborg.
At T-Systems, the partnership with KMD is also seen as an important step in a broader strategic initiative, says Klaus Koefoed, Managing Director for T-Systems in Northern Europe.
"The collaboration with KMD has been characterized by great mutual respect and a shared ambition to deliver the best possible solution for the customers. We are proud of being given the trust in operating critical systems on behalf of KMD’s customers, so it is a great milestone which now is complete. This is a key agreement for us and is the cornerstone in a strong foundation to continue the collaboration with KMD on delivering sovereign solutions to the Danish market," says Klaus Koefoed.
The successful transition to the new setup marks just the beginning of a closer and more strategic collaboration between KMD and T-Systems.
