DiData's new global cloud service

ITWeb reports that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) services and solutions provider Dimension Data unveiled a comprehensive range of cloud services - enabling companies to easily accelerate their adoption of cloud computing.

With Dimension Data's global Cloud Services, companies can become more agile, lower their IT infrastructure management expenses, and reduce cloud migration complexity and risk.

"Our clients realise the transformational potential of cloud computing, whether it's moving into new markets, launching new products, or improving IT efficiency," CEO of Dimension Data's Cloud Solutions Business Unit, Steve Nola said. "They're also aware that migrating to the cloud is complex, with significant implications to their business across operations and IT. Our Cloud Services are designed to help clients reduce costs, move faster and manage risk effectively."

Chris Lewis, Group Vice-President International, Telecom & Networking at research firm IDC, told ITWeb: "Although the adoption of cloud services will grow over the coming years, organisations have varying requirements, assets and expertise to throw into the cloud pot." Some organisations want a fully managed service, while others may want to build their own, Lewis said. "As companies evolve their cloud thinking, they will aim for a balance between automation and control - inevitably ending up in some form of flexible hybrid cloud solution, but, most importantly, without disrupting service or processes."
