What eww ITandTEL - Die IT der Zukunft 🚀 does

eww ITandTEL is an Austrian IT and telecommunications service provider operating as a Value-Add Service Provider for European business customers, with over 30 years of operating history. The company is a subsidiary of eww Gruppe (eww ag), a municipal utility owned by the city of Wels, and runs its headquarters at Knorrstraße 10, 4600 Wels, Austria. Its core customer base is the Austrian B2B market — small and medium-sized enterprises as well as large enterprises — served through consultative direct sales, an Infocenter, and technical support teams, with channel relationships via technology and integration partners.

The product portfolio is built on a proprietary infrastructure stack: seven ISO/IEC 27001 and EN 50600 certified data centers distributed across Austria, an owned fiber optic network exceeding 400 Gbit/s spanning Austria and neighboring countries, and an OpenStack-based cloud platform. In December 2025 the company upgraded its MPLS backbone from 100G to 400G using IP Infusion's OcNOS-SP-PLUS platform with 400G ZR+ coherent transceivers across a multi-vendor whitebox environment (UfiSpace, Edgecore), integrated by EPS Global. Service lines include colocation/server housing, public/private/backup cloud, GPU as a Service and LLM as a Service (launched in 2025), high-speed internet and site networking, cyber defence, managed IT services, hosted exchange workplace solutions, and wholesale capacity to other operators.

Revenue is generated through recurring subscription fees for cloud, connectivity, and managed services, colocation fees for server housing, and wholesale bandwidth contracts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed — services are sold as tailored, consultative solutions. The company holds Veeam Gold Partner status and has won three OEGVS B2B awards for customer satisfaction and service quality, and leverages its data sovereignty positioning (data hosted in Austria and Europe) as a primary differentiator against non-European hyperscalers.
