Cloud Solutions for End Customers

Managed Application Hosting

A Managed Application Hosting solution lets service providers offer the ability to take a customer-written or licensed business application environment and host it on their cloud environment. This solution is often an entry stage for business customers to provide a channel for internally developed products to be utilized by others.

Managed Application Hosting enables your end customers to move under-performing or non-cost-effective applications into your cloud offering – reducing costs and maintaining internal service levels. This is achieved by identifying business-derived performance indicators during the application on-boarding process.

Key solution elements include:

• Customer-agreed application performance levels maintained by flexing the underlying resources available to the application.
• Usage-based pricing for the customer (combination of monthly recurring charge and usage based on term, service class, size of application and other factors)

The key benefit of the Managed Application Hosting solution for your customer is to reduce the operational costs of running and scaling their application. It is intended to move the customer’s investment in IT from a Cap-ex to an Op-ex basis.
