Hosting and Cloud Computing
IT Infrastructure & Operations (I&O) services are an integral part of most enterprises. As technology advances, our dependence on highly responsive and available systems continues to increase. At the heart of this function is Hosting and Cloud Computing. In the eyes of the corporate end user, this is a service upon which they expect to be able to rely at all times. Regardless of how or where these services are hosted, I&O management is responsible for their availability and reliability, and the significant cost associated. Furthermore, there is an increased demand to make changes quickly as users now want access to data/information at any time, on multiple devices, and from any location.
