“Romeo Colacitti, President of Worldwide Online Corp., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Worldwide Data Inc. is pleased to
announce that the company has been recognized as one of the first
Application Service Providers (ASP) in Canada to join IBM’s
“Service Provider for e-business” initiative of IBM PartnerWorld,
an initiative developed to enable the next generation of Service
Providers.”
“Entry into the IBM initiative coincides with the announcement
of Worldwide’s first two IBM-enabled applications. The first – a
custom-designed, Firewall/Server, for a national client and the
second, an ASP solution for a new e-commerce company. Both
applications, which utilize the Netfinity Server products running
the Linux OS, are being developed by Worldwide’s, Linux Development
Group.”
“The combination of IBM’s server products and Worldwide’s
Linux development skills, along with our ASP Team’s expertise, have
culminated in the awarding of these initial contracts. Both
Worldwide and IBM are strong proponents of ASP solutions and the
Linux OS, which is very evident in the development of these
applications.”
