OpenText deepens partnership with Google Cloud, leveraging Anthos

OpenText is deepening its relationship with Google Cloud, the companies announced Tuesday, in part by leveraging Anthos, Googles platform for managing services on premise or in any cloud environment. The partnership is rooted in the close collaboration of both companies' engineering teams, OpenText told ZDNet, and demonstrates how their large enterprise customers are looking for ways to consolidate and get the full value out of their disaggregated data. To that end, OpenText is now offering containerized versions of several of its enterprise information management (EIM) applications such as Content Server, Extended ECM, Documentum, InfoArchive and Archive Center  on the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). These applications are used to handle mission-critical workloads for major corporations in finance, retail and other sectors, Savinay Berry, SVP of Cloud Services for OpenText, told ZDNet.
