ETISALAT AND ENTIRETEC ANNOUNCE PARTNERSHIP AT GITEX 2013 TO JOINTLY ENHANCE MANAGED ICT AND GLOBAL NETWORK SOLUTIONS FOR THE MIDDLE EAST AND GCC REGION

With the vision to expand its Managed Service portfolio for business customers, the Middle East's leading telecommunications operator Etisalat partners with IT technology provider ENTIRETEC. First cooperative steps focus on burstable, secure, reliable and identity-based high speed internet access (HSIA). Other Managed Service solutions are to follow.

Through the integration of the ENTIRETEC solution “Core Layer Technology (CLT) SECTOR”, which is an enabler for a multi service network platform, the performance of Etisalat's Business Connectivity suite of services is strengthened. Together, both companies are able to provide a worldwide unique centrally manageable network technology with precision-controlled access to internet, data, applications and network services.

Furthermore, CLT SECTOR allows the client to add existing services seamlessly into the own private or Etisalat’s public cloud connecting all company locations easily and ensuring that corporate standards are met across all properties. As it is deployed as a complete Managed Service, the solution is customizable scalable, overrides high CAPEX investments and only needs minimal effort in planning and execution.
