Industry Leaders Combine to Deliver End-to-End Enterprise Hosting,
Networking Application & Support Services

Englewood, Colorado – May 3, 2012 — Latisys, a leading national provider of IT outsourcing solutions – from colocation to cloud – today announced it has entered into a strategic partnership with Alinco IT, Inc. that enables enterprise customers to access a variety of world class professional IT services for needs that go beyond traditional infrastructure solutions.

Alinco, based in Brea, CA, provides innovative, cost-effective “Total Network Solutions” focusing on application support, systems integration and full lifecycle implementation services. Alinco helps Latisys’ customers extend their IT outsourcing footprint to address more specialized requirements at the database, operating system and application layers—across the entire Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model stack.

Alinco has spent over 30, years designing, implementing, managing and supporting critical IT systems, applications and architectures. As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, Alinco can deliver and deploy enterprise-grade professional services and development solutions. This includes, but is not limited to, hands-on support for Windows, SQL, SharePoint, Sequel Server Reporting Services (SSRS) and Exchange.

“Today’s IT leaders face unprecedented challenges—transforming legacy infrastructure, building, buying and deploying physical and virtual resources, securing and managing IT—all in an on-demand, budget-conscious world,” said Carolyn Merritt, VP of Customer Care at Latisys. “Alinco complements Latisys by addressing IT needs at ‘top-of-the-stack’ levels—reducing complexity and resource utilization for our customers and delivering flexible and scalable solutions—for today and for tomorrow.”

“This partnership represents IT outsourcing at its best,” said Albert Chang, CEO of Alinco. “It demonstrates a commitment on behalf of both Alinco and Latisys to building strong, lasting relationships that truly enable customers to rely on us as an extension of their IT infrastructure, engineering and application teams. This is in stark contrast to the ‘commodity’ approach most IaaS and IT professional services vendors take to market.”

With an emphasis on rapid time-to-value, Latisys’ flexible IT infrastructure solutions address customers’ current and future business requirements with services backed by leading quality of service (QoS) and technologies that provide unmatched scalability.
