Southgate, Cisco recommend automation for customers satisfaction
Southgate
Technologies Limited and Cisco Systems have advised experts in the
information and communication technology sector to automate their data
collection process.
The companies gave the advice during a seminar on ‘Data centre consolidation and automation’ in Lagos.
The Manager, Business Solutions,
Southgate Technologies, Mr. DafeOroghi, who spoke on ‘Consolidation and
virtualisation’, explained that consolidating data aids customers’
satisfaction.
He said, “Though customers may have some
pains for consolidation – such as too many networks and devices
already, challenges of sharing and moving resources, management cost,
need for more flexible architecture among others – these are things that
have easy solutions with consolidated data.
“We need to move from the traditional
disparate networking model to clouding, especially consolidation with
unified fabric which is a special type with a 109 interface.”
Oroghi explained that that clouding had
comparative advantages over traditional data gathering, stressing that
it allowed shared consumption, easy usage through self-service, scale on
demand, automated recovery in minutes, among other things.
He said, “Cloud is a data centre with
automation. It has IT resources and services that are abstracted from
the underlying infrastructure and provided on demand and at scale in an
elastic environment.
“Users pay per usage and not like that
of traditional data processing. Cloud guarantees security, control
service level management and compliance. It is trusted, reliable,
flexible dynamic and efficient.”
The Manager, Data Centre Business, West
Africa, Cisco Systems, Mr. TosinAmusa, said it was necessary to engage
right networking resources to get effective result.
