High Performance Systems business unit within RedLinX

Johannesburg, 21 Apr 2008

High Performance Systems (HPS), previously known as Business Solutions, was restructured with the primary intention of focusing on the core business of RedLinX - providing hardware solutions.

Realising a gap in the market, RedLinX joined forces with Tyan Computers - representing agencies around the world - to best serve various emerging markets and establish itself as a serious competitor in the industry.

To ensure that HPS best lives up to this goal, RedLinX has recruited the formidable expertise of Deon Manuel (Divisional Manager), Christo Versfeld (Pre-sales Engineer) and Graham Maart (BDM).

Manuel, the new head of HPS, boasts a track record of 13 years in the IT industry - having worked for the likes of IBM and Microsoft. Manuel's vision for HPS is that it will be a fast growing division within RedLinX as well as the hyper performance server market.

Maart, the Business Development Manager who has been with RedLinX for over five years, brings extensive market knowledge to the table and has been working closely with Tyan for the last three years. Tyan Computers, a business unit of MITAC, manufactures high performance server/workstation board technology platforms and server solutions products, utilising either AMD or Intel's latest technologies.

RedLinX.HPS is the importer and agency for their products in South Africa and Africa. Server barebones are imported and assembled for the SA market. These highly stable and space-efficient products are very attractive to OEMs and systems integration designing next generation rackmount server solutions for a wide array of applications.
