The Savvis Converged Cloud A secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure Close your eyes. Visualize your current IT infrastructure. Consider the ways in which cloud computing promises to transform it by providing access to applications, data, and computing power to your users from anywhere in the world. Now imagine a cloud solution that actually delivers on this promise for your most mission-critical applications on flexible terms that align with your busines The cloud. The network. The business flexibility. With the Savvis Converged Cloud, it all comes together. Cloud computing is transforming the IT landscape. By making data centers more agile, increasing provisioning speed, and reducing capital expenditures, cloud is forever altering the way enterprises deploy technology. Although cloud typically refers to a combination of compute, storage, and other virtualized data center technologies, a key element is often overlooked: the underlying network infrastructure. In early cloud implementations, businesses settled for using the public Internet as the network. But as enterprises begin migrating mission-critical applications to cloud environments, they are increasingly concerned about privacy, security, and performance. They need networks capable of tying together distributed architectures while enabling end-to-end compliance and control of their cloud-based applications. This is where Savvis comes in. We offer a virtualized hosting infrastructure and low-latency distribution networks under a unique flexible business model that ties it all together. We call it the Savvis Converged Cloud.
The Savvis Converged Cloud The Savvis Converged Cloud brings together three critical elements of a successful cloud solution: a managed virtualized application hosting environment; a tightly-coupled and secure low-latency distribution network; and a unique business model that allows Savvis to deliver complete, end-to-end, Quality of Service (QoS)-enabled solutions to global enterprises.
