We believe DTI Cloud offers an effective and strong business model,” said
Duncan Gray, operations director, KM Group.
The
signing marks DTI’s http://www.dtint.com first full-suite European cloud
agreement since the expansion of DTI Cloud to its high-speed data centre in
Central Europe.
The

implementation that are scheduled into early 2012. DTI solutions that are being
deployed include DTI ContentPublisher, DTI Lightning, DTI Circulation, and DTI
Advertising.

and guaranteed uptime. The secure and highly redundant data centre has abundant
bandwidth and the highest level of network availability in the industry.

exciting and gratifying. To have a long-term UK customer as the first to
embrace cloud publishing in Europe is consistent with their strategy of making
smart business model changes to increase competitive advantage,” said Don
