UK ISP Tiscali has today announced a new broadband enabled IP-VPN (Internet Protocol - Virtual Private Network) deal with retail chain GAME:
Tiscali launches Retail IP-VPN Solution and announces GAME contract win
Tiscali Business Services UK, a subsidiary of Tiscali, the Internet communications company, today announces it will supply a broadband enabled IP-VPN (Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network) solution to GAME, Europe's largest specialist retailer of computer software and video games. The contract was awarded to Tiscali in partnership with systems integrator and channel partner Prime Business Solutions. The contract win confirms the success of Tiscali's IP-VPN retail solution, branded Centris Retail following its recent launch.
Centris Retail is tailored for the UK and European retail industry and offers a bespoke end to end data solution underpinned by service level agreements (SLA's), for all retail IT network needs. IT Analyst house IDC estimates that 34% of UK retailers will implement network hosted IP VPNs by Q4 2003 and that the retail sector will show the most demand of all business sectors for broadband services.
The new IP network will connect more than 330 of GAME's retail sites across the UK, the company's HQ and data centre and enable the retailer to more effectively share resources and improve security and resilience in running mission critical retail data. Previously, GAME relied on an ISDN backbone, which was limiting bandwidth capacity and hindering the reliability of crucial retail applications.
