Aligning IT with Business Strategy Critical to New Generation of IT

DENVER, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtela, the global network solutions company, today announced its participation as an exhibitor at Interop Las Vegas on May 19-21 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. Across its global customer base, Virtela is seeing more IT leaders focus on their deployments from a business strategy perspective, rather than solely cost vs. performance. To help further this fundamental shift, Virtela will present managed network services at Interop that help IT departments align technology needs with business and financial objectives.

"In response to this downturn, we're seeing a new kind of IT professional emerge. IT pros are putting their 'business brains' to work in order to add value at the executive level," said Bill Dodds, Virtela's vice president of sales & marketing. "These professionals have a keen sense of corporate strategy and tap into resources such as managed services to meet their enterprise networking and operations needs while improving bottom-line results."

Virtela pioneered the hybrid-VNO (Virtual Network Operator) model for delivering managed services, leveraging hundreds of network infrastructures worldwide while owning select network assets that ensure optimal performance and resiliency. The result: customers get best-in-class networks without upfront capital expenditures, benefit from business-driving services in more than 190 countries, and have continual access to technology innovation at lower costs.
