Telstra receives SAP certification for its cloud 29 September 2011 – Telstra today announced SAP, one of the world’s largest enterprise software organisations, has accredited Telstra's cloud computing infrastructure ready for SAP cloud applications.
Telstra is the first Australian provider to receive SAP certification which means Australian organisations looking to outsource their SAP applications into the cloud can be assured Telstra’s infrastructure adheres to the highest industry standards.
Mark Pratley, General Manager, Telstra Cloud Computing, said the certification is the company’s latest milestone on its cloud computing journey.
“The SAP certification of our cloud infrastructure is another step in our recently announced $800 million plus, 5-year investment program,” Mr Pratley said.

“SAP is one of the largest enterprise application providers and is used by the majority of our customers. Receiving the SAP certification further indicates Telstra is delivering on its commitment to provide Australian organisations with a cloud computing infrastructure that adheres to the stringent requirements of the world’s leading cloud players,” Mr Pratley said.
Greg Harbor, Vice President, OnDemand Solutions, SAP ANZ said: “Telstra is a key strategic partner for SAP. We are very confident in Telstra’s ability to deliver infrastructure services to our customers, enabling the orchestration of critical SAP business applications in the cloud.  In short, this means customers can now consume SAP with greater flexibility, speed to value and a lower total cost of ownership.”
Telstra has consulted with more than 160 of its enterprise customers to learn what enterprise applications they are using and how they can benefit from hosting these applications in the cloud.
“By optimising our cloud services portfolio for SAP applications and services, our customers will benefit from increased flexibility to meet changing market demands, faster provisioning of business resources and access to highly reliable cloud architecture,” Mr Pratley said.
Telstra’s cloud computing services are delivered through an alliance with Accenture and include the delivery of Infrastructure-as-a-Service and Software-as-a-Service offerings that will also support SAP cloud applications.
