HP Drives New Era for Cloud Computing

HP Drives New Era for Cloud Computing

New solutions make the cloud enterprise grade

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, Jan. 28, 2011 – HP today announced a suite of new products and services that enable organisations to leverage the power of the cloud while ensuring they meet required levels of security, performance and availability.

Cloud computing is an important and growing platform for Instant-On Enterprises, where everything and everyone is connected. Instant-On Enterprises require IT environments that are flexible, automated and secure, and able to quickly adjust to changing demand.

While cloud computing delivers benefits such as faster deployment of new services, reduction in IT headcount and a pay-as-you-go model, it has traditionally lacked in areas that enterprises need, such as security, availability and ease of integration.

The new HP Hybrid Delivery solutions provide the benefits of enterprise-grade cloud computing, while meeting the specific needs of businesses and governments.

“Cloud computing is going mainstream and HP is leading the way,” said Keith Watson, managing director, Hewlett-Packard New Zealand. “HP has the enterprise experience, breadth of portfolio and global service delivery organisation to lead our clients through this transformation.”

The one- or two-day workshops have multiple modules that cover a wide range of topics, including business model implications, security and identifying the right services for the cloud. The workshops are led by seasoned HP professionals with experience and expertise in global cloud deployments. The workshop is currently available in New Zealand.
