Move beyond cloud operations. Reimagine your entire IT experience.
Boost your organization’s agility, resiliency, and productivity by extending your cloud operating model.
When the IT experience suffers, the user experience suffers.
The digital experience delivered to your organization’s customers and employees relies on a complex digital supply chain that’s made up of:
Access networks
Cloud-based network services
Cloud connectivity infrastructure
Cloud and software-as-a-service solutions
The challenge:
The result is a complex IT experience that’s less scalable, less agile, and ultimately less desirable for customers and employees.
The solution:
Switching to an extended cloud operating model can help simplify your IT operations to create an improved, streamlined user experience.
“…The growth of the cloud over the last several years can be attributed to a desire to extract more agility and innovation from cloud-based IT infrastructures.”
