Open source provider Red Hat announced Satyam, an IT service provider, has joined its Advanced Business Partner Program and plans to open a Center of Excellence (CoE) and open source lab in Bangalore for developing horizontal competencies and business solutions on Red Hat and JBoss platforms.
Nandu Pradhan, president & managing director, Red Hat, India, said, "This partnership will allow Satyam and Red Hat to collaborate more deeply on projects. The open source Center of Excellence will be an excellent showcase for customers looking at open source as well. It is encouraging to see our partners in India working proactively to expand their offerings in open source. This is a clear indication that companies have now started to see a great demand and value in the open source business model. We look forward to expanding opportunities with other partners as well."
Manish Mehta, director & senior vice president, ADMS, SAP & Testing, Satyam, added, "Satyam has consistently demonstrated its leadership in providing innovative and creative solutions in the open source technology space. We are looking at non-traditional solutions for customers and are exploring new technologies in the open source space. The partnership with Red Hat creates a new dimension in the value chain for our customers across verticals and geographies, helping them reduce total cost of ownership without compromising on the benefits of open source technology."
Satyam ADMS (Application Development and Management Systems) group and IMS (Infrastructure Management Systems) group have worked together with Red Hat to roll out the CoE at Satyam's Bangalore center wherein all the technologies on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and JBoss solutions are going to be showcased and prototyped for both domestic and global markets.
