HP is accelerating the spread of the cloud to its customers
New data center services, HP VirtualSystems solutions, and HP CloudSystem programs streamline cloud deployment.
Organizations are under increasing pressure to allocate their IT resources as needed to increase their flexibility, strengthen their competitive position, and meet their customers ’expectations. However, the introduction of new operating models, such as IT as a service and cloud computing, is hampered by e.g. the use of old data centers and rigid IT architectures, and the proliferation of technology. Choosing the most appropriate cloud strategy for a client’s organization is critical to success.
HP is launching the following offerings:
- Technology consulting for strategic data center planning, operation, and business continuity. These services can accelerate the conceptual and technical design and deployment of a cloud-based data center by up to 40 percent, and help coordinate IT, facility operations, and business operations.
- The HP CloudSystem portfolio is expanded with new financial services, development resources, and 100 new cloud technology centers (HP Cloud Center of Excellence) worldwide. At hubs in half of Asia Pacific and Japan, customers can learn about HP CloudSystem, the industry’s most complete, integrated, and open platform for building and managing services for private, public, and hybrid cloud environments.
- HP VirtualSystem for Microsoft® and HP VirtualSystem for Superdome 2 / HP-UX offer new “turnkey” hardware-software packages for fast design of optimized and fully tested virtualized application environments. With customized consulting and HP Support services, customers can deploy standardized application blocks to thousands of users in just a few hours instead of months.
