Overview
Cloud computing is among the leading disruptive trends and strategic technologies of this decade that offers a new IT delivery model. Several recent new developments have made security, risk management and governance in the Cloud more manageable, and hence opened up new options for enterprises that want to leverage the Cloud. Enterprises stand to derive a host of benefits from a smart and consistent Cloud strategy. iGATE can help you along your transformation journey to Cloud enabled IT for addressing the challenges faced by you today, namely:
Reducing Capital Expenditure (CapEx)
Adjusting to fluctuations in demand for computing resources based on dynamic business conditions
Rapidly setting up technology stacks for IT projects to be delivered in critical timelines
Maximizing utilization of computing resources, reducing their management complexity, flexibly reusing computing resources across widely ranging needs of multiple projects
Catering to high-end expensive IT infrastructure needs for which investment in CapEx is not a practical approach for you. These include :
Large scale compute resources for short-term experimentation or testing
High performance computing resources for compute-intensive processing
Distributed fault-tolerant environment for high availability and business continuity.
Cloud provides several features that help to overcome these challenges:
It offers a variety of pre-installed, dynamically scalable computing and storage infrastructure, platform and application software as a service
It is accessed on-demand from distributed locations using Open standards based automated, self-service interfaces
It is charged on subscription or usage basis at low rates that benefit from economies of scale
It is hosted on an optimized, fault-tolerant, highly scalable, secure infrastructure
Its management is automated and its complexity is hidden from users.
How iGATE Can Help You
We deliver end-to-end Cloud services from consulting, architecture, design, implementation to management-monitoring to help you throughout the lifecycle of your Cloud adoption initiative. We can extend your IT to a Cloud in public domain to satisfy your needs of Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), Application Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), or help to transform your data center into a private cloud for internal use, or implement and manage a hybrid cloud for you. We also deliver industry facing Cloud solutions.
Our services enable you to gain several benefits:
CapEx Reduction and Dynamic Scalability: We take a consulting-led approach. Through our
Cloud Acceleration Program (CAP), we help you to make complex decisions such as which of your applications to transition to Cloud, Cloud type and vendor platform to be chosen, and provide a smooth roadmap for transitioning to Cloud infrastructure that flexibly scales up or down as your demand varies and reduces CapEx and procurement cycle time.
Business Focus and Speed to remain Competitive: Our
Development/Testing on Cloud (DToC) and
Testing-as-a-Service (TaaS) offerings allow you to flexibly use required pre-configured development / testing technology stacks on demand from Cloud, and get you quickly started, reducing time-to-market, allowing focus on business problems enabling business innovation in order to remain competitive.
Efficiency, Agility, Availability and Accountability: Our
Private Cloud offering enables transforming your data center or server rooms into Cloud under your control for enterprise-wide use. It also enables optimal and flexible utilization of fault-tolerant IT resources providing efficiency, agility, availability; and allows intelligence and accountability to be provided for shared IT resource consumption by business users.
