- Telcos, Cable Operators and ISPs are fighting the Storage War against the ever-growing demand for email storage.
- Up to 40% year-over-year growth in storage need.
- Email is often a free product, yet important in binding the customer to the brand. The profitability is an issue though.
- > Some Telcos have voluntarily given up their email services and customers and gave them to Google or Microsoft!
- We think it’s time for YOU to take back the control.
The Email Hosting World is ChangingEmail is important yet the cost pressure is high
15 | OX Summit 2013: Mikko Linnamäki, Co-Founder Dovecot OY
- In-house clouds and public clouds offer help to save money on storage. Upselling of premium services will bring profit
- This paradigm change requires the email server architecture to support object storage and premium services
- Dovecot will help lower the storage cost by supporting object storage both on in-house clouds (using Scality etc.) and on public clouds, such as Amazon S3 and Windows Azure
- To even accelerate the price decrease, Dovecot has created MaaS, the elastic Mail-as-a-Service, which optimizes the hosting price to a minimum
Control Your Own Destiny!Make Email services profitable for you
