I’ve heard and participated in a lot of debate and discussion around “the cloud.” As with any new trend, there are proponents and opponents, but one thing is clear…business customers want to consume IT as a service. And there are many reasons, going way beyond alleviating cost: scaling services up or down as needed, leveraging resources with expertise in areas where the business IT department may be soft…I could go on, but let’s get to the point.
There are three ways to consume IT as a service:
Regardless of the model you choose, Alert Logic has you covered with information security solutions that work optimally in any of these three scenarios. Alert Logic Threat Manager and Log Manager are Security-as-a-Service products with an end-to-end multi-tenant architecture, deployed from the Alert Logic Cloud…a compute and storage grid built in the cloud for the cloud. This lets you deploy our products easily and naturally directly in your network, in a hosting provider’s data center, or in a public cloud environment. All you have to do is rack and configure an Alert Logic appliance and you instantly have access to Alert Logic’s advanced intrusion detection, vulnerability assessment, and log management solutions running in the Alert Logic Cloud.
We have a great network of channel partners who have you covered too. Alert Logic’s managed service provider and network service provider partners support on-premise IT infrastructure environments, while our hosting partners provide traditional hosting solutions as well as emerging public cloud environments.
So go ahead, consume IT as a service however you like! Whatever your preference, Alert Logic and our channel partners can put Threat Manager and Log Manager to work securing your IT infrastructure environment and meeting your IT compliance management needs.
