Open Source meets Business Congress 2009

30. January 2009

At the invitation of the event's subsidiary of the publishing company Heise Verlag, AOE media CEO Kian T.Gould presented AOE's successful realization of a TYPO3 e-commercial solution created for the young telecom provider "congstar" at the Open Source Meets Business Congress in Hannover.

True to this leading-edge congress's aim of showcasing Open Source Software in a commercial and business environment, Gould's presentation on a "TYPO3 intensive access solution for congstar" demonstrated to his audience of CIOs, CTOs and IT deciders the professional advantages of a high-performance business solution, based on the world's market leader in license-free Enterprise Web Content Management Systems.

His listeners followed with interest his description of how seamlessly this custom-built solution and congstar's existing commercial Online Shop system could be welded to one another, thanks to the versatility and flexibility of TYPO3's available interface editing points. As a result, the staff of Marketing & Sales at congstar can now quickly and easily edit text and layout themselves; a particularly important feature in the fast-changing and voraciously competitive pricing environment of the telecommunications market.

During question time it became clear that alongside the ease of staff operation and maintenance of this CMS, the Congress participants were particularly interested in the solution's performance. AOE media's high-performance caching and hosting concept, which includes server clusters and load balancers for improved access management of visitor demand in double-digit millions per month, also left a lasting impression on Kian T.Gould's audience.
