Bangalore: Leading IT
infrastructure provider Microland Ltd has entered into a strategic
alliance with global software major Microsoft Consulting Services
(MCS) to jointly offer cloud solutions to large enterprises in the
Indian market.
"With Microsoft software products, we will help enterprises
leverage private cloud-based solutions and services to transform
their businesses in the Indian private cloud market, which is
estimated to accrue $3.5 billion in revenues by 2015," Microland
vice president M.D. Bobby said in a statement Friday.
The solutions will be based on Microsoft's data centre services,
an integrated framework built on industry - leading architectures,
spanning hyper-visor cloud services, infrastructure as a service
transformation, optimised data centre transformation and well
managed date centre transformation.
"The partnership will enable us to deliver services that support
heterogeneous hyper-visor environments with operating systems and
application development frameworks, which allow customers to face
challenges in data centre management such as server sprawl,
security threats, service downtime and regulatory changes,"
Microsoft Services general manager Meetul Patel said.
As alliance partners, both will jointly provide lifecycle,
end-to-end range of services, from consulting, design and
architecture to delivery, deployment, implementation and
management to enable customers maximise returns on investments in
data centers by reducing operational costs and leveraging
virtualisation and cloud technology.
"By partnering with Microland, we will bring our industry-leading
architectures and best practices to customers in India, to help
them reduce costs, improve service levels and drive business
agility," Patel observed.
Microsoft private cloud solutions are built to provide enterprise
class virtualisation, end-to-end service management and insight
into applications so customers can focus on delivering business
value.
Microland is already working with an unspecified large enterprise
customer for the deployment and migration to a private cloud
across verticals such as banking, financial services, and
government.
