The Future of IT in Suriname just Got an Upgrade

Driving Cloud Innovation in Suriname with Nutanix
At Datasur, we are proud to be accelerating digital transformation across the Surinamese market through our collaboration with Velocity, introducing the power of Nutanix solutions to local organizations.

During our recent sessions and company visits in Suriname, we engaged with a wide range of businesses to explore how modern cloud platforms can deliver immediate value. What started as introductory discussions quickly evolved into strategic conversations around optimizing existing IT environments using Nutanix, combined with Datasur’s local expertise and support.

Strong Market Interest and Commercial Momentum
From the very beginning, organizations showed strong commercial awareness. Conversations quickly focused on pricing, budget alignment, and return on investment. Many participants were positively surprised by the flexibility and scalability of the Nutanix platform, and how seamlessly it can integrate into their current infrastructure.

This growing interest has already translated into concrete next steps, with several organizations moving forward in their adoption journey.

Rising Demand for Disaster Recovery and Compliance
We are seeing a clear trend in the Surinamese market: increasing investment in Disaster Recovery (DR), especially within the financial and insurance sectors. Nutanix offers a strong fit here, supporting compliance requirements while enhancing operational resilience.

An important advantage is that several organizations already run Nutanix in their production environments. This creates immediate opportunities to expand into DR solutions by leveraging existing infrastructure. At the same time, we see strong potential to introduce Nutanix to new customers looking for more flexibility, scalability, and efficiency in their IT operations.

Real Impact on IT Operations
During one of our company visits, a conversation with an IT Manager highlighted a common challenge: the pressure of managing critical systems with limited resources, often extending beyond regular working hours.

This is where Nutanix makes a real difference. By enabling automation, simplifying management, and ensuring continuous operations, organizations can reduce dependency on individual resources and build more sustainable IT environments. This message strongly resonated across our sessions.

Local Collaboration, Real Results
Our collaboration with Velocity and Nutanix has been instrumental in bringing these solutions to the Surinamese market. Together, we aligned on go-to-market strategies and demonstrated how Nutanix can be effectively positioned to meet local business needs.

For some participants, these sessions also served as a valuable follow-up to the Nutanix 2025 event previously hosted by Datasur, further strengthening awareness and engagement.

Looking Ahead: Accelerating Cloud Adoption
The response from the market confirms that Suriname is ready for the next step in cloud innovation. Organizations are actively seeking solutions that offer resilience, scalability, and compliance, key strengths of the Nutanix platform.

At Datasur, we are committed to supporting this journey. Together with Velocity and Nutanix, we will continue to drive innovation and help organizations build future-ready IT environments.

Stay Secure with SSL/TLS Certificates

SSL/TLS certificate validity periods are being shortened, and this will affect how businesses manage website security moving forward.

In our video, we explain what’s changing and how you can stay in control of your certificate renewals.

As of March 2026, SSL/TLS certificate validity periods will gradually decrease reaching just 47 days by 2029.

What this means:
You may need to renew and manage certificates more frequently, making efficient processes and automation increasingly important.

Good to know:
▪️ Certificates are still purchased on a one-year basis
▪️ You can reissue your certificate and retain any remaining validity
▪️ No pricing changes have been announced at this time

Why this matters:
Shorter validity periods reduce security risks but they also increase the complexity of managing certificates. Without a solid approach, businesses risk unexpected expirations and potential downtime.

We help businesses stay secure with:
✔️ Trusted SSL/TLS Certificates
✔️ Smart renewal and lifecycle management solutions
✔️ Continuous protection without disruption

Datasur Highlights Q1:
Tech Expo 2026

Datasur had a strong and impactful presence at Tech Expo Suriname 2026, using the platform not only to engage with attendees but to actively contribute to the development of Suriname’s technology landscape.

As a key player in data center services, data storage, IT security, and cloud solutions, Datasur positioned itself as a thought leader throughout the event. The expo provided an important space to share insights, exchange ideas, and highlight the growing role of digital infrastructure in driving innovation and business continuity across the market.

A significant portion of visitors to the Datasur booth were students, reflecting strong interest from the next generation of tech professionals. Many came prepared with thoughtful questions about our services, career opportunities, and the broader impact of technology. These conversations naturally evolved into meaningful discussions about the future of IT, the importance of secure and scalable data solutions, and the career paths available within the industry.

With around 80% of visitors already familiar with Datasur and aware of our role in data storage, IT security, and cloud solutions, we were able to move beyond introductory conversations and focus on deeper knowledge sharing. This level of engagement highlights the growing awareness of the importance of digital infrastructure in Suriname.

Beyond the booth, Datasur further extended its influence. Our colleague participated in an interview with Yasgroup N.V., offering additional insights into industry trends and reinforcing our position as a trusted voice within the tech ecosystem.

Tech Expo Suriname 2026 once again proved to be a valuable platform, not only for visibility, but for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and inspiring innovation. For Datasur, it was an opportunity to connect with future talent, strengthen our role as a thought leader, and contribute to shaping a more resilient and forward-looking digital economy in Suriname.

Datasur Inspires at Kangoeroe High Career Day

On Wednesday, March 25, 2026, Datasur proudly participated in the annual Career Day at Kangoeroe High. At the school’s invitation, we had the opportunity to engage with students aged 12 to 18, sharing our knowledge and experience in a meaningful way.

As part of our commitment to Sustainable Development Goal 4, we believe in empowering young people through access to knowledge and practical insights. During several interactive sessions, we introduced who we are as a data center and explained the role we play in supporting digital infrastructure. Students gained a clearer understanding of data storage, connectivity, and how data centers are essential to everyday life.

Through short presentations and open discussions, we made complex technology accessible and relevant. Students were especially interested in the diversity within Datasur and eager to learn how to stay secure online. Their curiosity and energy were evident throughout the sessions, highlighting a growing interest in technology and future career opportunities.

In addition to the sessions, there was time for informal interaction, creating a relaxed and engaging atmosphere. It was inspiring to connect with students on a personal level and see their enthusiasm firsthand.

We look back on a successful and rewarding Career Day. At Datasur, we remain committed to supporting education and inspiring the next generation, helping young people explore the possibilities within the digital world.
