EOH today announced its continued commitment to driving cloud services adoption across its enterprise customer base and markets. EOH Cloud Services will focus on helping African businesses to securely provision, manage and monitor IT infrastructure and applications as they move across private, hybrid and public cloud environments in a flexible and cost-controlled way.
"EOH is committed to delivering best-in-class services to its customers and the region through consultation and tailored solutions," said Rob Godlonton, executive director, EOH. "We constantly evaluate current IT market trends, the latest technologies, service delivery best practices and other emerging issues. This ensures that we develop and deliver the services our customers need to capitalise on business opportunities in the region and beyond. Today, cloud is a significant part of a go-forward IT strategy in Africa, and we are currently in consultation with our customers to show them how best to reap the benefits of cloud technology."
EOH has created a comprehensive EOH Cloud Marketplace that spans dedicated private cloud, to hybrid cloud and public cloud services. As a result, EOH makes it simple for customers to manage private clouds to support their business needs, or to leverage EOH Cloud Service's fully managed cloud option for mission-critical applications.
Richard Vester, director, EOH Cloud Services, says: "EOH's strengths lie in our flexible and consultative approach to providing customers with the best solutions to meet their specific needs. In the cloud space, we bring over five years' experience in architecting and delivering cloud solutions that are best-in-class. For EOH, this means understanding the customer's current infrastructure, how it can be migrated through the cloud cycle, from private cloud to public cloud services, and a mix of anything in between. We recognise that clients have concerns regarding cost containment, internal expertise and ongoing control and management of cloud solutions. We take great care to ensure the customer has full control over their data security and accessibility standards, and how they will manage the cloud environment," says Vester.
The EOH Cloud Marketplace includes EOH Enterprise Cloud, a complete Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) experience, which meets the pressures and demands inherent in enterprises to rapidly scale and provision cloud resources in a quick and transparent manner. It takes the guesswork out of complex server consolidation and capacity planning initiatives, giving customers the comprehensive information they need on-demand about their physical and virtual server workloads.
To meet today's regulatory compliance, security and audit demands, the EOH Cloud Marketplace includes proper controls and a complete audit trail across private and public cloud environments. The EOH Cloud Marketplace offers a comprehensive set of cloud services to assess customer infrastructure for workload migration and disaster recovery, analytics, execute the dynamics of cloud and ensure business continuity.
"Cloud serves as the business model that African organisations need today to best optimise IT investments and business outcomes, providing the much-needed decision framework for dynamic IT resourcing," continues Vester. "Our investments have yielded offerings that are streamlined, easy to integrate, quickly provisioned and accessible from any device, and with cost predictability. As a result, our customers can be confident the right decisions are being made for the business in a manner that does not compromise the security and integrity of their environment or data. We are ready to provide customers with a perfect fit of cloud services that meets their specific business requirements and to walk them through the cloud journey step by step," concludes Vester.
