Benefits of Cloud could transform IT research states

Research conducted by IDC states that the way IT is consumed could be transformed by Cloud, with benefits including cost, flexibility and agility.
 
However, the challenge for most organisations is maintaining control in the face of the increasing consumerisation of IT, whereby staff use their own IT in preference to corporate devices and applications.
 
A majority of Cloud’s efficiency is gained through very high utilisation, with many Cloud services providers’ datacentres running at 50% or higher. In contrast, many enterprises run their datacentres at 10% utilisation or less.
 
As part of this research, IDC also found out that 90% of corporate data centre capacity goes unused; 23% of organisations have multiple Cloud services in full-scale use; and 8 out of 10 employees use consumer Cloud services to fill the corporate IT gap.
 
Computacenter, Europe’s leading independent provider of IT infrastructure services, has developed end-to-end solutions to datacentre transformation; the company’s expertise and knowledge provides a perfect fit for a partnership that will help organisations drive outcomes in virtualisation, automation and the pathway to Cloud.
