Kolab Systems joins OpenPower
Kolab Systems , creators and providers of the open source Kolab collaboration suite, are as from today, full members of the OpenPOWER Foundation
(PresseBox) - As member of the OpenPower Foundation, Kolab brings customers access to the cloud of the future driven by IBMs bleeding-edge Power hardware architecture. The Power line of servers improves the experience with Kolab, pushing performance of the already agile Kolab suite to new heights and allowing companies to manage even more simultaneous users and more services.
Another advantage this move brings is the non-trivial boost to our customers' security. By sidelining other insecure and closed hardware architectures in favour of the open Power hardware platform, Kolab Systems cannot only safeguard information at the software level, but also protect the privacy of our customers' companies and individual users at the hardware level.
The spirit of the OpenPOWER Foundation is well-suited to the open source principles of Kolab Systems. Becoming a member of OpenPOWER allows Kolab Systems to participate in the fine-tuning of the Power hardware for our Kolab suite. The know-how Kolab System acquires as a member of the OpenPOWER Foundation also allows us to better adapt Kolab to the Power architecture.
"Solutions built on Open Software and Hardware are proving to be key drivers for IT adoption in today's ever-changing technology landscape," said Rick Newman, Director of OpenPOWER Strategy & Market Development Europe. "By working with the robust ecosystem of the OpenPOWER Foundation and building solutions on top of the POWER platform, Kolab Systems AG is able to play a key role in infrastructure innovation for today's and tomorrow's emerging workloads."
