Former Microsoft channel chief Gavriella Schuster has officially left the company after 25-plus years with plans to promote and facilitate diversity, equity and inclusion in the technology industry
LAST week, scores of technology-related companies saw their share prices climbing ahead of Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s announcement of the MyDIGITAL blueprint on Friday.
Digital services and solution providers such as Revenue Group Bhd, Dataprep Holdings Bhd, GHL Systems Bhd, Dagang NeXchange Bhd, Censof Holdings Bhd and ManagePay Systems Bhd were among the top gainers, along with two obvious winners Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM) and AwanBiru Technology Bhd.
Prestariang Systems Sdn Bhd, a unit of AwanBiru formerly known as Prestariang Bhd has been appointed a managed service provider (MSP) to manage cloud services for the government.
TM, on the other hand, has received conditional approval to provide services to the government for the migration of 80% of public data into the hybrid cloud system by end-2022. This is expected to translate into lower government cost in information technology management and better efficiency in the collection and management of data.
