The Government has offered Australia's three mobile operators, and vividwireless, renewal of their existing spectrum allocated on 15 year licences in the late 90s and early 2000s at set prices, while the Government expects to rake in $3 billion.
QPAC says its growth strategy aims to position QPAC
alongside other leaders in the market including Ticketek, and that it
will build on the organisation’s recent $34.7 million refurbishment of
the venue adding greater flexibility and deliverability of commercial
solutions.
Located in Brisbane, QPAC hosts local and
international performances including the Paris Opera Ballet, Australian
Chamber Orchestra and Queensland Ballet, and typically converts over 60
per cent of online bookings per day.
According to Holder, customers constantly demand new and exciting
offers with everything in one simple package, and, he said, through the
Macquarie Hosting solution “we have achieved a far quicker time to
market for our new offers and online ticketing applications. Macquarie
clearly demonstrated a deep understanding of our business and the
critical nature of the online channel to our success.”
Spread across multiple virtual and dedicated VMWare hosts, Holder says
QPAC’s mission-critical applications will be housed in Macquarie
Hosting’s ISO and DSD Gateway certified data centre, the Intellicentre.
Holder says that specialised services including SSL load-balancing will
ensure QPAC can manage growing peaks in traffic to its ticketing site
while tape back-up and redundant firewalls offer added security and
redundancy.
The deal with Macquarie, says Holder, also includes a comprehensive
disaster recovery solution that will give QPAC the “reliability
essential to guarantee its ticket sales and build its reputation in the
market both locally and internationally.”
