Infosys Launches New Offering to Improve IT Infrastructure Reliability and Efficiency
BANGALORE, India, NEW YORK, LONDON and SYDNEY, July 25, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Infrastructure testing services to assure business readiness and optimal IT
performance
Infosys, [http://www.infosys.com/pages/index.aspx ] a global leader in consulting and
technology, today launched a new offering for infrastructure testing. The offering
comprises a range of services that span the entire infrastructure life cycle - from new
hardware deployment and integration to migration and operations. Companies can use these
services to comprehensively test and assure the business readiness and performance of
their IT infrastructure during major changes such as datacenter consolidation,
virtualization, and technology upgrades.
Speaking on the need for such an offering, Rona Shuchat, Director, Application
Development, Testing and Management Services, IDC, said: "As enterprises are challenged by
deployment of increasingly diverse technologies including virtualization, collaboration
and cloud, there is a growing urgency to validate, streamline and optimize underlying
infrastructure being transformed within the datacenters. End-to-end infrastructure testing
services, with related program governance, risk assessment, configuration, security,
interface and performance testing will help enterprises scale up to meet the
multi-dimensional complexity of their growing infrastructure and application portfolios."
Said Chandrashekar Kakal, Senior Vice President and Global head of Business IT
Services, "Infrastructure Testing is an innovation at the intersection of two of our core
offerings - Infrastructure Management and Testing. This is an excellent example of how we
are innovating across services to help our clients drive greater IT infrastructure
reliability. We are already seeing a positive response from many clients for this offering
and have also started assisting several organizations across geographies and industries."
According to various industry estimates, the cost of data center downtime can range
between $80,000 and $500,000 an hour for large enterprises. Infrastructure Testing from
Infosys will significantly help reduce downtime and resulting costs. For more details,
