Seeing as I’m involved in getting a new Data Centre at the moment this post<\/a> over on ZDnet could my eye.\u00a0 Looks like HP is to target a ‘data centre as a service’ product at enterprise customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I’ve heard bits about this for a few years now – HP account managers will bore you silly with stories of renting computing time to Shrek – but this is the first I’ve heard about an actual product.\u00a0 It sounds like there are four favours of service on offer initially:<\/p>\n

  1. A compute intensive service for number crunching applications (the Shrek example!)<\/li>\n
  2. A SAP 6.0 optimised service<\/li>\n
  3. An Exchange optimised service<\/li>\n
  4. A more generic Windows and Unix application server service<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    From what’s described it looks like a decent start, it’ll be interesting to see whether they start offering additional specific configurations.\u00a0 Something for SharePoint would probably be a good start.\u00a0 As it takes off within bigger companies more people will start grappling with the infrastructure required to run SharePoint in a big way and look for service solutions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
