Orange Business Services will launch new cloud computing services in the coming 24 months, covering six main areas: real-time applications, collaboration, security, infrastructure, cloud-ready networking and vertical solutions for specific industries.

The company, a key brand of France Telecom and one of the world’s leading telecommunications operators, previously rolled out cloud services for desktop virtualisation and hosted virtualised infrastructure.

“Operating cloud computing services is in our DNA,” said Barbara Dalibard, president and CEO, Orange Business Services. “The network is the cloud, and our experience and expertise in network and communications services place us in the best position to deliver high performance cloud computing services to support our customers’ transformation. We will leverage our global capabilities to deliver secure and flexible cloud computing services to our customers,” she said.

Orange cloud computing solutions include a full range of services from infrastructure to real-time business applications, supported by its cloud-ready network to ensure rapid scalability with full security as well as end-to-end service level agreements. Its full lifecycle approach provides customers with step-by-step guidance during their transition to cloud-based services, accommodating hybrid models which may be more suitable for many enterprises.

Orange will deliver and manage all business critical applications and IT infrastructure as a service, offering a one-stop-shop approach. Complete end-to-end solutions provide customers with usage-based pricing and self-service through a user-friendly portal.
