Cloud operating model

Bring agility to your entire infrastructure

Cloud-based IT infrastructure propelled the adoption of the cloud over the last several years, and IT organisations are reaping the benefits. Go beyond cloud operations and reimagine the entire IT experience by using a cloud operating model for your on-premises network.

You can apply this model to get the anywhere-access and self-service elements of the cloud, plus the automation and insights from effective management platforms. And API-powered extensibility makes it easy to apply these principles to network infrastructures.

Why make on-premises more cloud-like?
