ACI to bring 50 new jobs as it opens data centre in Limerick
ACI Worldwide has announced the opening of its new European data centre in Limerick, that will add 50 new jobs to the existing workforce of nearly 100.
The provider of real-time electronic payment and banking solutions will deliver the utmost in reliability, security and data privacy from their new data centre as ACI expands to accommodate growing demand across the EMEA region.
The Limerick data centre was built and launched in record time, according to ACI, and it meets the most stringent security and compliance standards. The centre also leverages ACI’s product investments to make its universal payments solutions available to European companies through ACI’s private cloud.
Phil Heasley, its president and CEO, says: “We are very excited about our new European data centre and the tremendous overall opportunities for ACI in the region, which is testament to our great team and our powerful universal payments offerings. As more organisations embrace private cloud solutions to gain a competitive edge, they’re turning to ACI; our dedicated cloud payments offerings provide the security, privacy and reliability that customers need and expect from mission-critical payment solutions.”
The company has operated in the Limerick region for around 10 years now from the National Technology Park in Castletroy.
Minister for Finance, and Limerick TD, Michael Noon, comments: “I have championed electronic payments and have overseen a move in Ireland toward more efficient and convenient uses of electronic payments. I am a firm believer in the work that ACI is doing and I am grateful to see that they are a firm believer in the people of Limerick and the broader region.”
