Just at the right time

Here is a commentary by Ralf Sürken, CEO Europe at Syntax: "We welcome AWS's commitment - it is the right move at the right time. We are experiencing a cloud boom in Germany for business-critical applications such as SAP and other systems. Even more conservative companies are turning to the public cloud and are now even setting up their IT for new locations entirely in the public cloud. For the digital transformation of our industry, for example for industrial IoT or real-time machine control, German companies need more and faster infrastructure - especially through local zones here on site, which deliver low latency times and therefore better performance. Berlin and Munich are a good place to start."
