Springville, UT—01 March, 2012—Digital Technology International (DTI™) has signed a contract with Delmenhorster Kreisblatt, a newspaper near Bremen, Northwestern Germany, to upgrade and implement their DTI ContentPublisher editorial solution in DTI Cloud, the company’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cloud-publishing platform. This signing is the first German DTI Cloud contract for Digital Technology. The project is planned to be finished in the second-quarter 2012 completion.

Delmenhorster Kreisblatt is a daily newspaper published since 1832, and has been a near decade-long DTI customer, installing DTI’s editorial system in 2002. In 2008, Delmenhorster Kreisblatt continued to strive for innovative and cost-performing ways to compete in their market by implementing DTI Lightning, DTI’s Web-publishing solution and a component of DTI ContentPublisher. They were the first German customer to completely rebuild their website www.dk-online.de using DTI Lightning.
