MICROmega SUBSIDIARY SIGNS DEAL WITH SUPER GROUP
MICROmega Holdings Limited`s subsidiary company, Turrito Networks (Pty) Ltd
("Turrito"), recently signed a partnership agreement with Super Group Limited
("Super Group") to deliver cloud computing services to Super Group`s
organization.
Turrito is a provider of network and virtualization services, for both private
and public cloud requirements. These solutions are accessable anywhere and are
not bound to specific physical devices. This enables the virtualization of a
corporate`s network in a very short space of time and enables the delivery of
the customer`s choice of services from the cloud.
In terms of the agreement, the primary data centre for Super Group went live
with Turrito`s cloud technology in January 2012. This internal infrastructure is
delivering cloud computing services to Super Group and its customers in South
Africa and several international regions. Turrito are working closely with Super
Group to expand the cloud computing enablement across its operating regions.
According to Brian Timperley, Managing Director of Turrito, "Concluding the
Super Group agreement was significant for Turrito as it has given us the
opportunity to work with a large, respected multi-national company in delivering
a world class cloud solution".
He added, "The momentum that has been generated from the Super Group deal
has been exceptional, and we have managed to overcome the barriers to entry for
corporates wanting to go cloud. We are currently engaging with clients across
the spectrum of corporate South Africa, with similair roll-outs scheduled for
the near future".
Greg Morris, Chief Executive Officer of MICROmega adds, "Turrito is starting to
deliver on it`s immense potential and while the effect on earnings will initilly
be small, we expect the investment we have made in cloud computing over the past
three years to deliver a high return by Q4 this year".
Super Group`s Chief Information Officer, Adrian Lewis had the following to say,
"Our initial testing and working with Turrito has proved to be very positive.
Super Group will continue to roll-out this technology as the cost benefits
provide real savings".
