The Itanium platform is already running mission-critical applications for 80% of the Global 100 corporations. And developing countries, like Egypt, are forecasting growth in the enterprise server market in the foreseeable future.
Hazem Amer, Intel Egypt Enterprise Business Development Manager, was featured in a recent article by AMEinfo.com, and gave the following context to the Itanium 9300 launch in Egypt:
“The server market in Egypt makes up to 20-25% of our business and we expect to see 20% year on year growth. Servers deliver energy and operational efficiency and benefits to business which is in line with cost savings. Refreshing the PC cycle is crucial for enterprises this year as we move away from the downturn.”
“Customers need a flexible technology infrastructure that can efficiently and quickly meet changing mission-critical demands. Intel’s Itanium processor 9300 series, combined with HP Integrity servers, helps customers achieve new levels of scalability and resiliency with advanced virtualization capabilities to meet those needs.”
