(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — India-based global IT services provider HCL Technologies (www.hclisd.com) announced on Tuesday it has unveiled a new suite of next-generation data center services.
The new suit consists of managed storage service, managed back service, offsite-vaulting services, virtualization as a service, cloud services for testing and development environment, disaster recovery and mainframe management services.
These services are based on the ITIL Service Catalog, which is used as a starting point for the implementation of the service level management process. They provide enterprises the option of device-based utility pricing.
The NextGen DC Services will be delivered from HCL’s 35,000-square-foot, Tier III green data center data center in New Jersey, which it recently acquired from an undisclosed Fortune 500 organization.
The data center will also provide hosting and colocation services to HCL’s prospective and existing infrastructure outsourcing customers.
For these customers, HCL will managed and monitor their IT assets along with ancillary services including “intelligent hands and feet,” facilities reporting and asset management, says the company.
“Our new suite of services provide enterprises with hybrid and right-shore delivery models to bring scalability and flexibility in their computing environment,” says R. Srikrishna, executive vice president and worldwide head of sales at HCL Technologies’ infrastructure services division. “Coupled with our globally acknowledged IT operations management services these value-added offerings promise transformational, non-linear management of enterprise data center assets at significantly reduced costs.”
Srikrishna says the services are designed to facilitate longer term opportunities for a series of cloud-based services which have been impacting the data center space, says Srikrishna.
HCL will be hosting a session on the data center transformation capabilities on December 2 at the Gartner Data Center Conference in Las Vegas.
