Partners Deepen Focus on As-a-Service IT
Delivery and Sign Agility Platform Reseller Agreement
CSC (NYSE: CSC), a global leader in next-generation IT services
and solutions, and Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) today announced the
expansion of their long-standing, global alliance to help clients
quickly and cost-effectively realize the benefits of cloud-enabled
digital transformation through strategic focus on joint delivery of
CSC BizCloudTM powered by Hitachi Unified Compute Platform (UCP),
storage-as-a-service (STaaS) and SAP HANA offerings. The companies
have also entered into a new multi-year CSC Agility Platform
reseller agreement.
As more enterprises shift to the cloud and embrace as-a-service
IT deployment, they are encountering challenges around security,
flexibility and build-versus-buy cost considerations. CSC BizCloud
powered by Hitachi UCP addresses these challenges and enables
infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS)
and STaaS IT delivery across hybrid cloud environments. Clients in
a wide range of sectors – from financial services to manufacturing
and aerospace – have already adopted these joint offerings and have
achieved:
- Real-time, remote and secure access to
content;
- A consistent application deployment
framework that addresses regulatory and compliance
requirements;
- Rapid, reliable application currency
via software release automation and workflow;
- One-step provisioning and deployment
with increased security;
- Management of sensitive records;
and
- Lower investment costs with existing
storage infrastructure.
“Today, organizations are embracing digital transformation in
order to accelerate innovation and increase mobility and business
agility,” said Mike Walkey, senior vice president, Global Partner
Organization at HDS. “Because every client and every transformation
is different, we see value in offering many alternatives to help
clients navigate this journey and achieve their desired business
outcomes. Organizations want trusted partners who can ease
enterprise cloud deployment, deliver cost-effective as-a-service
offerings, and support corporate mobility initiatives. With a
shared vision and strategy to simplify and accelerate the digital
transformation journey for our mutual clients, HDS and CSC can be
those partners.”
“We are capitalizing on and expanding our 20-year strategic
relationship to deliver greater value to clients as they transform
in the digital economy,” said Dave Zolet, executive vice president
and general manager of CSC Americas Region. “Transformative
offerings, like CSC BizCloud powered by Hitachi UCP and CSC Agility
Platform, can help enterprise clients leverage the power of their
data to create economic value.”
The new CSC Agility Platform reseller agreement enables HDS to
offer greater choice and flexibility to clients looking to find the
best-fit solution for their IT environment. The advanced automation
and management capabilities of the CSC Agility Platform combined
with the Hitachi UCP converged infrastructure solutions from HDS
can cost-effectively ease and accelerate enterprise hybrid cloud
deployments through a single platform.
