Beyond.pl, the most trusted and respected data center service provider in Central Europe, announces the launch of a cloud services offering based on HPE GreenLake. By providing cloud services powered by HPE GreenLake, customers will gain on-demand access to compute and storage and financial flexibility of a pay-per-use model .

It is also the most efficient data center in Poland with a PUE energy efficiency index of 1.2.

– At Beyond.pl, we want to address the growing need of our customers for a solution that meets any workload and compute requirement, ensures security and compliance, and provides flexibility, scalability, and transparent cost management. We believe that our joint agreement with HPE to leverage and host HPE GreenLake in our colocation facilities will provide our customers with all the benefits stemming from the hybrid cloud experience and allow them to accelerate their innovation and growth. We are very proud to partner with HPE to enhance our offering and provide Polish and European enterprises with this industry-leading solution, said Wojciech Stramski, CEO of Beyond.pl.

– We are proud that the market leading service provider in Central Europe selected HPE GreenLake to deliver a world-class solution to Polish and international enterprises. HPE is strongly committed to unlock the full potential of a hybrid cloud environment wherever it makes most sense – on-premise, at the edge, or in an HPE-approved colocation facility. Together with Beyond.pl we have launched HPE GreenLake in Data Center 2 of Beyond.pl, one of the most secure and efficient data centers in Europe, bringing end customers the solution they need – delivered as a service, said Marcin Szymanik, Service Provider Sales at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Poland

With its long-standing experience, Beyond.pl recognizes that an increasing number of fast growing companies are searching for a solution that combines the power of an agile, elastic, pay-per-use cloud experience with an infrastructure that can ensure security and efficiently tackle demanding compute workloads. While many enterprises find themselves drawn to the public cloud, most have struggled to move a majority of their key applications due to application entanglement, data gravity, security and compliance, and unpredictable costs. The hybrid model combining hybrid cloud services in off-premise locations is ideal for these demands.
