Windstream Joins HP Cloud Provider Network; Chuck Adams Comments

Windstream has signed up for Hewlett-Packard’s team of managed service providers — the HP PartnerOne program — in a move to deliver cloud services to clients.

Windstream will offer private cloud, backup as a service and replication as a service to small, medium and enterprise clients, Windstream said Tuesday.

“Windstream’s IT as-a-Service provides our joint customers with robust, cost-effective managed-cloud services, freeing their IT departments to focus on business-critical tasks,” said Chuck Adams, sales director and cloud business development at HP.

“Additionally, our customers can easily accommodate changing demands while paying only for the resources they use,” added Adams.

The cloud offerings under the program are based on the HP Helion and infrastructure platforms.
