HP launches Sydney-based Government Cloud Computing Service

HP launches Sydney-based
Government Cloud Computing Service

 
Timed to pounce on public sector opportunity with Cloud Computing. HP Australia has launched a cloud computing service hosted in Sydney, designed to appeal to small and medium-sized public sector agencies. The vendor has patiently waited for agencies to get a green light from regulators to consume IT resources as a service before switching on its Government Secure Cloud Service (GSCS) from infrastructure housed within Sydney’s Global Switch data centre.


These racks can take on Government customers today and will be complimented by HP’s Eastern Creek data centre when it goes live next year.
