Image Description

German media behemoth ProSiebenSat.1 has announced it will sell its web hosting division to Italian cloud service provider WIIT for an estimated €50 million (around $59 million/AU$82 million/£46 million).

myLoc offers an array of solutions that cater to the needs of both medium businesses and large enterprises, including colocation, dedicated server hosting, managed hosting and cloud hosting, with cloud backup, IaaS and Microsoft 365 also included in the offering.

Its five data centers (and one business continuity site) are based in Dusseldorf, can accommodate 65,000 servers, come with an ISO 27001 certification and fall under German data protection laws, which are some of the most stringent in Europe.

Advanced Television reports that MyLoc generated around €16 million with EBITDA of €4 million in the last financial year, with 300 colocation customers and over 37,000 square feet of data center space.

According to a spokesperson for Deutsche Bank, “the sale comes at an attractive multiple which we view as a positive. Based in Düsseldorf, MyLoc was a subsidiary of Virtual Minds which would now focus on core ad-tech solutions.”

myLoc is WIIT’s first international acquisition, and was hailed by company CEO Alessandro Cozzi as a transformational transaction - one that will allow his firm to “create the European leader in the cloud for business critical applications”.

  • Save over 30% on the incredible Dell XPS 13 in this early Black Friday deal

    Dell often has some of the best early Black Friday deals, and this year is no exception, with the current model of Dell XPS 13 available for just $649.99, down from $949. (Not in the US? Scroll down for deals in your region).

    That's a saving of 31% on one of the best laptops currently on the market, which means you won't need to compromise performance for affordability if you're looking to buy a high-quality portable workstation on a tight budget.

    This is the smallest laptop in the Dell XPS family, but that smaller, more portable size doesn't mean it's a less capable device. In fact, this is one of the few laptops to fairly compete against the MacBook Air, is one of the most appealing portables available, making this one of the best Ultrabooks for working professionals and students alike.

    This saving is applied to the base model, which comes equipped with an 11th generation Intel i5-1135G7 processor, 8GB of super speedy DDR4x RAM and a 256GB SSD for storage, which is ideal as an everyday laptop for web browsing, office tasks like spreadsheets and checking emails, and homework. 

    This is also the model without a touchscreen, but you can include one for an additional $300, which still saves you $100 on the usual retail price.

    If you need something with a little more juice then the flagship XPS 13 is also available with a beefed-up Intel i7-11655G7 processor, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and that full HD touch display for $1,399.99, saving you $150 on the usual $1,549.99.

    The Dell Black Friday sale often starts early, getting a leg up in the run-up to the big event itself, but they also tend to take offers down quickly when stock has been depleted so if you want to snag yourself a real bargain, you'll need to act fast.
