SELECTS CYRUSONE FOR GLOBAL IT SUPPORT
Houston, TX
October 18, 2005
IT infrastructure leader
CyrusOne (www.cyrusone.com) announced today
its receipt of a contract from real estate
information and transaction management company
Stewart Information International, Inc.
(Stewart International) to help support
Stewart’s efforts to market software
applications to emerging governments for
the purpose of plotting land, assigning
ownership and delivering municipal services.
The first phase of the
contract, signed last week, will enable
CyrusOne to provide Stewart International
with a secure technical environment the
company can use to demonstrate the application
when presenting to governments in Latin
America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
The second phase of
the project will include the utilization
of CyrusOne consultants to help optimize
Stewart International’s application
in terms of continuity, predictability and
scalability through an intense process of
discovery, software templating, stress testing
and other consultative services.
“When you travel
halfway around the world to put on a presentation
to foreign dignitaries, there’s simply
no room for anything but total guaranteed
reliability,” comments Caroline Brelsford,
National Accounts Director at CyrusOne.
“Now Stewart has one less hassle to
worry about. Sales of this complexity are
complicated enough without having to sweat
the technical back-end when you’re
in front of an important client.”
Stewart International
representative Gregg Humphries comments:
“CyrusOne not only has all the IT
resources we need, but is flexible enough
to sit down and really listen to what we
need before saying anything. This is really
an excellent strategic fit for us.”
Stewart International,
a subsidiary of Stewart Information Services
Corporation (NYSE: STC) is a leader in international
real estate information services, helping
empower people through land ownership from
15 offices on five continents.
