Strategic Importance of Galway Location

Perseus selected Galway for its NOC because of the central role it is playing in Ireland’s burgeoning technology industry. The NOC offers top-of-the-line facilities, expert engineering talent, 24 x 7 x 365 operations, multi-lingual and accredited best-in-class global customer support for the company’s rapidly growing global managed services business. The NOC will support customers that include banks, market makers, and exchanges, as well as e-commerce, telecommunications, multi-media and technology (TMT) firms. As part of the new Galway NOC, Perseus built a network linking Dublin, Blanchardstown, Galway and Cork, all interconnecting to the award-winning Perseus global managed network.

“We are extremely thankful to the Irish government for its support in this initiative, and the role that IDA Ireland has played in making this a trouble-free experience. We hope that this venture will encourage other businesses to take advantage of the pro-business culture in Ireland and also provide welcome employment to the local economy,” said Dr Jock Percy, CEO of Perseus.

“Galway represents a centre for innovation in Ireland and an important gateway for Europe,” says Chris Beddall, Perseus Ireland Country Manager. “The region has tremendous local engineering talent and multi-lingual resources, enabling us to offer NOC as a Service. This product can reduce operating expenses on average by 25% for our clients, allowing them to focus on growing their business whilst Perseus manages their networks.”

Comprehensive Network Operations as a Service

The NOC as a Service (NaaS) offered by Perseus provides customers with 24 x 7 x 365 network surveillance, performance monitoring, trouble ticket management, event management, vendor/SLA Management and guaranteed service levels (service assurance).
