Utility Computing - VanceInfo Advances Your Potential

Utility Computing

Utility computing has the potential to shake up the entire IT value chain of corporate computing, and is typically enabled through ‘green’ computing infrastructure that has been Cloud-enabled through virtualization, and software applications that have been architected to run as a service (SaaS). It provides for the packaging of computing resources and applications to offer a metered service similar to traditional public utilities such as electricity, water, natural gas, or the telephone network. This has the advantage of requiring low initial capital costs and minimal ongoing IT infrastructure overhead.
