Lenovo has launched its new TruScale comprehensive as-a-Service product – a subscription-based offering that allows customers to use and pay for data centre hardware and services without having to purchase the equipment.
As technology rapidly evolves, businesses need the ability to integrate new technologies and workloads efficiently and seamlessly, often within resource, budget and capital restrictions, explained Lenovo, pointing out that too often, IT personnel spend more time on administrative tasks and maintenance of systems than innovation.
To address customer needs, Lenovo has introduced the TruScale Infrastructure Services, a new take on procuring IT resources via a consumption-based subscription model.
With this new consumption model, customers never take capital ownership of the hardware or other IT assets and pay for what they use each month as part of their operating expenses.
Lenovo’s ThinkSystem and ThinkAgile product portfolios are available through this offering, which includes hardware installation, deployment, management, maintenance and removal.
“Lenovo’s TruScale as-a-Service offering is truly revolutionary, changing how IT departments procure and refresh their data centre infrastructure. With our subscription-based model, customers pay for what they use, eliminating upfront capital purchase risk,” said Laura Laltrello, vice president and general manager of Services at Lenovo Data Centre Group.
“Our offering can be applied to any configuration that meets the customer’s needs – whether storage-rich, server-heavy, hyperconverged or high-performance compute – and can be scaled as business dictates.”
Lenovo TruScale as-a-Service offering is available through Lenovo sales representatives and channel partners across the globe.
