HP Services To Accelerate Building, Migration Of Apps To Azure

HP Enterprise Services has announced new applications services designed to accelerate the building or migration of applications to the Microsoft Windows Azure platform. Traditional applications development and deployment approaches often take too long and cost too much. Cloud platform offerings, such as the industry-leading Windows Azure platform, can improve responsiveness to business needs while reducing costs. With the new HP Cloud Applications Services for Windows Azure, applications developers can quickly design, build, test and deploy applications for the Windows Azure platform. As a result, enterprises can more quickly capitalise on new opportunities.

The services also enable clients to accelerate adoption of the Windows Azure platform as part of their hybrid service delivery environments. Additionally, clients can manage risk and optimise IT resources with a methodical approach to assessing, migrating and developing applications on the Windows Azure platform. With usage-based pricing for the platform, clients also can align IT costs with changes in demand and volumes. “As their needs shift, enterprises want to confidently and rapidly adopt cloud-based applications,” said Marshal Correia, Director, Enterprise Services, HP India. “HP helps clients speed time to market by transforming or developing new applications, then efficiently and cost-effectively deploying them onto the Windows Azure platform.”
