Production and DR Hosting

Agile organizations are recognizing the benefits of hosting their mission-critical equipment within a data centre. With IT and communications facilities hosted and managed by Keross, our clients enjoy less latency and the freedom to focus on their core business.

"We decided to relocate our production environment to the Etisalat data center inside a dedicated cage managed and monitored by Keross. The new set up will allow us to significantly reduce the total cost of operations, while improving the level of service and freeing our resources to focus on our core brokerage business."
Adel Trabelsi, General Manager, Wafa Financial Services
