Hello

Friends

 

Few days back i had came across with this good article regarding"offshoring of IT infrastructure",which I want to share with you all.

Even as top outsourcing customers are tightening their information technology budgets, they continue to outsource the management of their computer servers and desktops, according to experts tracking the industry.

Remote Infrastructure Management Outsourcing (RIMO) has emerged as the growth engine for many Indian tech firms. According to Everest Research Institute, the RIMO market is expected to touch $5.9-billion in 2009 and $8.6-billion in 2010.

According to Everest Group associate principal Vikash Jain.“Infrastructure services do not fall under the discretionary spend category and the current growth projection is unlikely to be impacted by the economic recession,”

While IT infrastructure outsourcing is almost 5-year-old industry, remote management of computer infrastructure has given an opportunity to Indian tech firms to compete with established rivals such as IBM and HP-EDS.

According to Everest, the offshore suppliers (India-based companies) grew at a 70% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2004 and 2007.

Anand Lavi of Tholons, an offshore advisory firm, said that there are still many segments of IT infrastructure that can be offshored.

Indian tech firms have been building their capability in this space over past few years. Wipro’s acquisition of Infocrossing for $600 million gave it a strong foothold in the infrastructure services space with direct presence in the US market.

Mr Jain also added that RIMO deals are typically of a longer duration giving the much-needed stability to the Indian company.

I was wondering that due to global meltdown which has highlighted this folly of the Government and the private sector in neglecting the hugely under-serviced and highly promising domestic IT sector than how it can be possible it will touches it will touches $6 bn this year.

What is your point of view guys?Do you really think so it will happen?

Hi Patil... Remote Infrastructure Management Outsourcing will rise for sure. Companies are keen to “focus on their core strengths” and “outsource the rest,” are looking at Remote Infrastructure Management to stretch their IT budgets. Organizations should formulate an IT strategy which achieves the following objectives: increases service levels for end customers; improves end-user response time through proactive management and reduces costs and increases flexibility. This could be achieved by RIMO easily.......
