Computer Sciences Corp. (VAR500 2009 rank: No. 5) Monday unveiled a family of cloud services that leverage the company's strengths with private clouds and combines them with new public cloud models.
CSC will manage complete ecosystems of cloud service providers, including platform-as-a-service, infrastructure-as-a-service and software-as-a-service. According to the solution provider, that will help clients manage data, lower operational costs, and collaborate easily and effectively across public and private networks.
"CSC has decades of experience managing 'private cloud' enterprise computing environments on a global scale," said Brian Boruff, vice president of CSC's cloud computing, in a statement. "Extending these skills to integrate and manage public and private clouds is a natural step in the evolution of our business."
The services will comprise three areas. Cloud Orchestration Services is a best-of-breed approach for cloud services integration that provides clients with service-level management, remote monitoring, reporting, auditing and data transparency. Trusted Cloud Services is a portfolio of industry-compliant desktop, computing, storage and network infrastructure services available on a just-in-time, on-demand basis with full security features and stringent service-level criteria. Finally, World Class Consulting Capabilities will let CSC's enterprise information technology clients and independent software vendors take advantage of improved business models enabled by private, public and hybrid cloud capabilities.
Lem Lasher, president of CSC's Global Business Solutions and chief innovation officer, will lead the building of cloud computing delivery capacity.
