OpenText selects Google Cloud as first cloud provider for its EIM solutions

WATERLOO, Ontario, Nov. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX, TSX: OTEX), the global leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced a new partnership with Google Cloud to bring key OpenText EIM solutions to Google Cloud Platform.

"The world's leading enterprises need a stable and secure hybrid-cloud infrastructure to manage their most valuable business assets, information," said Mark J. Barrenechea, Vice Chair, CEO and CTO at OpenText. "OpenText is committed to providing the widest possible range of deployment options to customers, and Google Cloud provides a strong platform for companies to securely manage their content and applications with planetary scale."

As part of this collaboration, Google Cloud and OpenText will work together to deploy OpenText's EIM solution suite on Google Cloud Platform. This work will include a containerized application architecture for flexible cloud or hybrid deployment models. Deploying OpenText solutions on Google Cloud Platform will allow customers to autoscale their deployments as their businesses demand.

OpenText has selected Google Cloud as its first partner to support OpenText Anywhere to deliver hyper-scale hosting functionality to customers.

"Information is a critical asset for any business, but many large enterprises have not yet fully realized the value of their Enterprise Information Management solutions. That's why we're delighted to partner with OpenText to help customers run their Enterprise Information Management solutions securely, flexibly and at scale," said Kevin Ichhpurani, Corporate Vice President at Google Cloud.

"Enterprises across all industries are looking for a flexible, secure and stable cloud infrastructure to support their transformation into intelligent and connected enterprises," continued Barrenechea.
