Red Hat, the world's leading provider of open source solutions, has announced the appointment of Linux System Dynamics (LSD) as the first Red Hat Advanced Business Partner with middleware specialisation in southern Africa.
The accreditation, which reflects a longstanding relationship with Red Hat, will allow Linux System Dynamics to directly address the increased demand for complex, high-end open source middleware solutions in the southern African region.
Linux System Dynamics has more than eight years of experience in open source solutions and specialises in providing enterprise computing solutions for infrastructure, applications, systems integration and IT governance.
Red Hat Advanced Business Partners with middleware specialisation have Red Hat certified expertise, a track record of successful JBoss projects and demonstrate extensive knowledge of Red Hat solutions.
“We are delighted to see Linux System Dynamics receive this accreditation,” says Louis Seyffert, country manager at Red Hat, southern Africa.
“This latest enhancement to the partnership between our two companies will enable a fresh focus on developing high-end, integrated open source solutions for customers in the southern Africa region.”
“Receiving our accreditation as a Red Hat Advanced Business Partner status validates not only our partnership with Red Hat, but also our commitment to investing resources in developing our Red Hat product skills,” says Sven Lesicnik, MD at Linux System Dynamics.
“We are able to offer a full range of consulting, implementation and training services to companies aiming to build their infrastructure on open source solutions.”
Linux System Dynamics has developed a strong portfolio of Red Hat skills and services over the past few years. Adding certified middleware engineers to its base of Red Hat Certified Engineers and Red Hat Certified Examiners allows the company to offer corporate customers a more complete suite of open source products and services.
