Red Hat has appointed Linux System Dynamics (LSD), an open source consulting firm, as a Red Hat Premier Business Partner for the southern Africa region.
Red Hat Premier Business Partners are top-tier Red Hat partners who have demonstrated expertise in the Red Hat product portfolio and have met the stringent technical, sales and training requirements specified by Red Hat, in order to deliver the benefits of Red Hat services and products to customers.
“Over the past year-and-a-half, Red Hat has enjoyed excellent growth in southern Africa, thanks to the efforts of partners such as Linux System Dynamics,” says Louis Seyffert, country manager, Red Hat. “This partnership is significant as we expand our partner ecosystem and more customers turn to open source solutions to take advantage of performance gains and cost savings.”
Linux System Dynamics specialises in providing enterprise computing solutions based on Linux and open source software. The company offers extensive skills and experience in areas such as infrastructure, applications, system integration and software migration.
Linux System Dynamics has earned Red Hat Premier Partner status by building a strong base of Red Hat-certified technical and product expertise as well as helping to grow Red Hat's business in southern Africa, which has grown since it opened a representative office 18 months ago.
“With more than eight years of experience in the open source market and a strong, longstanding relationship with Red Hat, Linux System Dynamics has a demonstrated skill and knowledge base to enable their customers to achieve success with Red Hat's portfolio of open source solutions,” adds Seyffert. “Red Hat Premier Business Partners are well-trained and highly committed to our products. They are expected to lead the market with top-level services and customer satisfaction.”
“Linux System Dynamics welcomes the new partnership agreement with Red Hat as an endorsement of the skills that the company has developed in Red Hat solutions over the past few years,” said Sven Lesicnik, managing director at Linux System Dynamics. “We have made significant investments in creating a base of Red Hat Certified Engineers and Red Hat consulting expertise, and can offer our markets world-class solutions based on the Red Hat platforms,” says Lesicnik.
“We have a full range of consulting, implementation, support and training services, and can help customers put Red Hat software together with other open source products to create enterprise-class solutions.”
