From a business perspective, when we reflect on the events of recent years, we notice one common feature of successful companies, namely that they have been able to adapt to new customer requirements.
Global pandemic, ongoing supply chain issues, new competitors, market changes, new challenges such as supporting a remote workforce and increasing productivity. Regardless, companies must be able to quickly adapt their business objectives to changing market conditions. This means they need solutions that provide them with the flexibility and agility needed to achieve their desired business outcomes. Not excluding IT solutions. That's why, in recent years, many companies are turning to an everything-as-a-service model that can provide them with this flexibility and agility.
The definition of the "everything as a service" model includes:
- Software as a Service
- Platform as a Service
- Infrastructure as a service
- Cybersecurity as a service
- Hardware as a service
- Technology as a service
"As-a-service" is an important element of digital transformation because it helps organisations use IT more efficiently, enabling them to deliver the desired business outcomes. And everything is "as-a-service" from the moment you start using the HPE GreenLake platform for your IT.
In deciding how to deliver a comprehensive portfolio of "solutions as a service," HPE focused on what customers need. It knew that companies were adopting a "cloud first" approach. But to get customers where they needed to go, they needed to adopt a "cloud everywhere" approach. But what does "cloud everywhere" mean? Most customers envision the cloud as a destination: a public cloud that is "out there." However, this idea of the cloud "just as a destination" does not meet the needs of today's businesses. The cloud should enable organisations to get the services they need, on demand, through a self-service process. This agility creates flexibility. This allows a company to scale services up and down as it makes sense for its needs at any given time.
Cloud equals economic model. Companies only pay for the IT resources they use, when they use them, removing the barrier of high upfront capital expenditure and allowing the company to invest that capital elsewhere. Finally, from an operational standpoint, the cloud provider manages the infrastructure, freeing up the company's IT staff to perform other innovative work tasks. When you really think about what the cloud is, the cloud is not a destination, it's a capability.
Businesses need a cloud that "comes to them" from anywhere and everywhere. That's why we're pleased to deploy HPE Green Lake, which encompasses a complete portfolio of as-a-service solutions, including pre-configured and fully customised solutions, based on specific customer requirements. In this way, we provide customers with self-service cloud, scalability, pay-per-use and management across the entire IT. This provides customers with a unified IT operating model across their endpoint, data center and hybrid cloud environments.
For example, if you need smaller capacity initially, we provide HPE GreenLake Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) solutions that offer a great entry point for you. We can offer pre-defined, pre-configured solutions that provide smaller initial capacity with the ability to scale as your requirements grow. Once you experience the convenience, flexibility, economics and functionality of HPE GreenLake, you'll want more. Later, we may add other technologies, another location, or new services. You'll no longer have to manage the day-to-day operations of your data center and can focus solely on innovation. You get everything under one contract, one point of contact and one invoice.
We can also provide you with consulting, transformation, migration and integration services.
