Global Utility Computing Platform designed

Wipro Technologies is expanding its infrastructure as a service ("IaaS") capabilities to create a global utility computing platform, designed to meet the specific requirements of enterprise-class clients. The platform draws on Wipro's global data center infrastructure and deep expertise managing mission-critical IT systems to deliver compute, storage, recovery, network, security and other services in an automated, consumption-based model. The IaaS portfolio is being marketed as Wipro iStructureT services, and will be the foundation for offering a broad set of infrastructure, application and business process outsourcing solutions in an 'as-a-service' model.

Michael Wilczak, SVP - Strategy, Datacenter Services, Wipro Technologies said, "Last year we began offering multi-tenant, virtual server hosting to our existing clients as part of large, integrated infrastructure management engagements. Clients have quickly adopted the service, and today, 15% of the servers hosted in Wipro's data centers are delivered in an as-a-service. Now, we are expanding the service portfolio, deploying the platform throughout the US, Europe and India, and marketing the solutions as discrete service offerings under the Wipro iStructure service line."
