“We have a unique need to support our highly dynamic and heterogeneous network dispersed across six states supporting a large and growing number of active users,” said Mohammed Ghanawi, Computer Operations Supervisor, HCT. “PEM is the only hosting automation solution that is flexible enough to support our needs to deploy and manage advanced hosting capabilities. Now when we need to distribute a new hosting option or service we can relay on PEM to deploy it quickly and without the need to adjust our existing infrastructure.”

According to SWsoft, HCT’s 13 locations throughout the United Arab Emirates and expert faculty make it a leader in education and training. The organization needed to add centrally managed Web and application hosting functions to its facilities, a task well suited to SWsoft’s platform.

“HCT illustrates yet another proven automation scenario that PEM can support,” said Serguei Beloussov, CEO and president, SWsoft. “Our distributed approach is ideal for managing Web and application services without scalability or flexibility limits. Large service providers, Telcos, ISPs and registrars are realizing the clear value proposition and ROI of PEM.”
