The high client demand in Asia-Pacific has led Savvis Inc. to expand its cloud infrastructure services offering to the region. Savvis Symphony Open will be the second cloud solution available from its Singapore data center, complementing the broad portfolio of managed and virtualized hosting and network services that Savvis currently offers to enterprises and the public sector in Singapore.
The infrastructure aims to drive data center consolidation by reining in server sprawl, curtailing overbuying and tackling underutilization of servers. Scalable resources are available on-demand and with flexible business terms.
Symphony also allows self-service management and reporting through a client portal and on-demand provisioning to provide greater control. It also offers the ability to dial-up pools of temporary resources, resulting in cost control and the opportunity to avoid large capital expenditures
“We are pleased to add Savvis Symphony Open cloud infrastructure to our growing portfolio of managed IT services to meet the needs of enterprises across Asia-Pacific,” said Suan Soon Cheng, managing director for Savvis Asia Pacific. “New and existing clients can now benefit from Savvis Symphony Open’s on-demand, dynamically scalable resources allowing them to control their IT costs and tailor their usage and set-up to meet their individual needs.”
Savvis Singapore already offers Savvis Symphony Dedicated, which allows enterprise customers to establish a dedicated cloud environment to provide baseline compute and storage resources for web applications, such as ecommerce.
Savvis’ Singapore data center serves local enterprises, government departments and global clients, including the Thomson Reuters Hosting Solution. Savvis’ Singapore data center is a world-class facility, which offers ISO 27001 security certification and provides approximately 18,000 square feet of raised floor of space.
Globally, Savvis operates a Tier-1 application transport network and 28 data centers with more than 1.4 million square feet of raised floor space designed to support enterprise IT operations.
