Cloud Solutions for IT—Focus IT on Driving Business Results, not Managing Infrastructure

Current Situation

Today, enterprises face a slow growth, capital-constrained environment. More than ever, there is a need for innovation and agility. IT leaders are looking to cloud computing to deliver much needed innovation with minimal capital expenditures. This is driven by the compelling business case for cloud computing—shared infrastructure that allows IT to address emerging business requirements 2-5x faster at 30-40% lower cost.

As a result, more and more CIOs are "thinking big" about the cloud. But this requires CIOs to answer a host of questions.

Appirio Solution

IT needs a new type of partner to make the most of the cloud—traditional partners have so much to lose in the transition to cloud computing that they've been a source of fear, uncertainty, and doubt. You need what you might call a "cloud solution provider."

Allow us to introduce Appirio. Appirio offers products and services that help enterprises accelerate their adoption of the cloud. For a CIO, we're a trusted, experienced advisor, who can help you use the cloud to do more with less, and exceed the expectations of your stakeholders.

Here's what we have to offer:

• Appirio CloudWorks: Appirio's cloud broker technology that is delivered as a service making it possible to deliver cross-cloud solutions that improve business and IT productivity, data quality, compliance, and return on existing SaaS investments.

Our services and products enable enterprises to source complete solutions to run the business from the cloud—by knitting together cloud applications, cloud platforms, and cloud infrastructure. We call this Cloudsourcing. Cloudsourcing allows services firms to focus on their core competencies and get out of the business of running a data center, while benefiting from the lower TCO, business agility and improved effectiveness of running the entire business in the cloud.
