Mr. Brian Ellis reports
eDispatch.com Wireless Data has enhanced its ability to quickly and
reliably roll out its services to customers by selecting IBM Canada Ltd. as
its technology provider.
eDispatch has standardized on IBM's Netfinity servers and undertaken a
relationship with the industry's e-business leader to ensure that
eDispatch's needs for rapid scalability in hardware capacity can be met on
a continuing basis. The eDispatch solution encompasses Netfinity servers
ranging from the 4500R up to the 8500R. The Netfinity server family
delivers extreme uptime, superior performance and scalability.
"Working with IBM will allow eDispatch to advance our go-to-market
strategy, quickly and reliably," said Brian Ellis, president and chief
executive officer, eDispatch. "As we globally expand our operations with
wireless carriers, we will need to ensure that we consistently roll out our
solutions in a seamless fashion and scale up our operations as quickly as
possible to meet market demand."
The relationship will be brought into play immediately as eDispatch
continues to expand its operations with its commercially licensed
customers, Nextel and SouthernLINC. In addition, working with IBM gives
eDispatch a competitive advantage in pursuing future contracts by allowing
the company to ramp up more quickly into a revenue generating position for
both the carriers and themselves.
"At IBM we are pleased that eDispatch has chosen to place its high-demand,
scalable hardware needs on the shoulders of the popular Netfinity Server
platform," said Stephane Boisvert, Canadian business unit executive of
IBM's Net Generation Business unit. "IBM Netfinity servers have proven to
be a reliable and trusted choice for new players in the Internet economy."
