Degroof Petercam relies on Proximus Luxembourg to modernize its ICT infrastructure
Luxembourg, November 19th, 2019 – Degroof Petercam partners with Telindus Luxembourg, the brand
devoted to the professional market of Proximus Luxembourg, to modernize its ICT infrastructure
and to rely
on associated managed services in Luxembourg and in Belgium.
To support its long term strategic ambitions, Degroof Petercam has decided to modernize its
infrastructure to
ensure a flexible and sustainable ICT environment.
This initiative is part of the group’s digital transformation program that spans over several
years and covers
four major aspects: Infrastructure, Applications, Processes and new ways of working.
Degroof Petercam is leveraging on the most recent innovations implemented by Telindus on its
hosting
infrastructure called U- Flex, the flagship private cloud product of Telindus to host large
scale customer
infrastructures. It offers flexible combinations of housing, dedicated and shared infrastructure
hosting
solutions as well as numerous managed services, operated and monitored on a 24/7 basis, such as
managed
security services but also common enterprise solutions like email, collaboration or telephony
services.
Degroof Petercam’s datacenters will be centralized in Luxembourg, for the entities in Belgium and
Luxembourg
in a first phase. Proximus Luxembourg will operate the target infrastructure, while deploying
proven advanced
technologies. Building on its expertise, Proximus Luxembourg will support the group for future
developments
in cloud technologies, in line with Degroof Petercam ambitions.
"Proximus Luxembourg has managed to differentiate itself by its integrated outsourcing offer that
meets our
operational needs, our high level security standards and our strong ambitions in terms of
innovation. What’s
more, the transition from our old power-hungry servers to ultra-modern ecological external
servers will allow
us to limit our impact on the environment.” says Pascal Nyckees, Group COO at Degroof
Petercam.
Bart Van den Meersche, Chief Enterprise Market Officer at Proximus Group, is very pleased: “We
are extremely
proud to have been chosen by Degroof Petercam after a thorough selection process. We are fully
committed to their future plans in terms of innovation and growth. ”
Gérard Hoffmann, CEO at Proximus Luxembourg, concludes: "With Degroof Petercam, we share the same
values. Together, we are innovating, which is vital for a country like Luxembourg whose economy
is largely based on services. ”
The project was formally launched on the 14th of November during a signing ceremony in the Banque
Degroof Petercam Luxembourg headquarters, attended by the management of the two companies.
