Breakout session at Enterprise Connect; Lync In A Managed Cloud: A Good Alternative To An On-premise And Self-managed Lync Deployment?
As organizations continue to march towards adoption of UC solutions and Lync deployments, they are facing the question of whether to deploy Lync in their own datacenters and self-manage the solution or host it with a Cloud Provider.
Traditionally the Cloud's strongest benefits are on the IAAS side, but with the evolution of Managed Cloud, there is optimism that complex Unified Communications (UC) solutions can be deployed in Managed Cloud while preserving manageability, agility, and security of the Lync solution.
In this session we explored the major challenges facing deployment of Lync in a private cloud and how Rackspace's Managed Cloud can be a strong economically and technically viable alternative to an on-premise and self-managed Lync deployment.
Webinar - Learn How to Deploy Microsoft SQL in the CloudTuan Yang
Most IT professionals find it challenging to deploy Microsoft SQL in the Cloud because the user interface in the set-up process is quite complex. Factors like clicks, review screens, and wait time between sub-steps, etc., make it even more complicated.
As an IT professional, you must ensure that key business tasks related to migration are protected from downtime and data loss.

L'azienda reale e la Business Continuity nell'era del Cloud Computing - by SS...festival ICT 2016
L’ormai consolidato avvento del cloud computing sta cambiando molti dei tradizionali modi di approcciare i servizi ICT. A questo cambiamento non possono sottrarsi le tematiche di High Availability, Disaster Recovery e Business Continuity.
L’intervento evidenzierà come le soluzioni pensate per il mondo pre cloud non siano più adeguate alle situazioni che vivono aziende e operatori nella dinamica realtà quotidiana, illustrando come sia possibile individuare approcci e prodotti adatti ai nuovi scenari.
Businesses are embracing the Cloud because it promises increased agility and scalability. But it can also introduce complexity, interoperability, and security concerns.
Hybrid Cloud is emerging as a way to mitigate those concerns by providing the right combination of internal controls with the ability to securely scale to meet business demand for IT resources.
In this presentation you will learn:
- The benefits and advantages of a Hybrid Cloud solution
- Key considerations when moving to a Hybrid Cloud architecture
- How VMware and Macquarie Telecom are teaming up to make Hybrid Cloud a reality for your organization

2. Fanatical Support
®
It all starts with Fanatical Support
Some cloud vendors provide basic break-fix support. Fanatical Support is
different.
Fanatical Support means that our engineers and their specialized expertise
are always available to you, 24x7x365. We do some of our best work at 3 a.m.
Sunday and on Kingsday.
Our customers think of us as an extension of their teams—and
that’s how we think of ourselves.
Our industry-leading service level agreements guarantee
exceptional reliability and uptime. We’ve delivered 99.999%
infrastructure uptime for years.
FANATICAL SUPPORT ISN’T JUST A SLOGAN
It isn’t just expert and friendly service (though that’s part of it). It’s
the result of a complex business process that we’ve refined for 15
years. It starts with the way we hire: for attitude and aptitude. Then
we train for technical skills.
Fanatical Support is something that we measure carefully by
surveying about 1,000 of our 300,000 customers every day.
Support teams are assessed and rewarded based on those surveys
and on the proportion of their customers who stay with us, grow
with us, and recommend us to their friends.
Fanatical Support flows from our belief that exceptional customer service can’t
be commanded. It can only be volunteered by Rackers who are empowered to
spend time and resources to serve their customers.
Fanatical Support flows from the strength of a workplace culture that has
helped us climb steadily up Fortune Magazine’s list of the 100 Best Companies
to Work For, where we now rank #8.
GARTNER
For the past two years, Gartner
has recognized us as a leader
in their Magic Quadrant for
Managed Hosting.
In June 2014, they rolled out a
brand new Magic Quadrant for
Cloud-Enabled Managed Hosting.
We’re excited to announce that
they’ve recognized us as a 2014
industry leader in that quadrant,
too!

5. Wherever you want it, however
you want it supported
No matter your specific workload, Rackspace can support
your tailor-made infrastructure on dedicated servers, public
and private cloud and third party platforms
Managed cloud lets you tap the power of the cloud for
your strategic business goals without the frustration,
cost, and time of managing it yourself. Your core business
isn’t managing infrastructure. So why do so many of
your resources go toward purchasing, maintaining, and
refreshing hardware and software?
Unlike other cloud providers, Rackspace only offers
managed solutions. From ecommerce to hosting, big
data to hybrid cloud, our specialists will architect, run and
support all of your cloud workloads 24x7x365.
Fanatical Support® is what makes Rackspace the #1
managed cloud company—empowering you to move
beyond the limitations of do-it-yourself cloud with the
support of thousands of expert engineers.
We’re different. We know it takes more than infrastructure
to get the most out of a cloud—it takes expertise. It
takes the willingness to understand what our customers
consider success in the cloud, and help them achieve it.
That’s why we only offer managed solutions, backing
your infrastructure with our in-house, high-touch Cloud
Engineers and Fanatical Support® 24x7x365.
