Deal Ticker: SWITCH's Strategic Partnership with Phoenix Systems AG

SWITCH is a Swiss foundation that has been the operator of the Swiss academic network of universities since 1987.

SWITCH is launching SWITCH Cloud, a new offering tailored to specific needs of the Swiss education, research and innovation system.

SWITCH is working with Phoenix Systems AG as part of a strategic partnership to implement and operate the SWITCH Cloud. While Phoenix provides highly automated SWITCH Cloud infrastructures, SWITCH is responsible for the cloud services that build on them and for overall operation.
