Do the old accounting calculations still hold true to the premise services off on IT? No they do not. You might ask ... But wait a minute, you can not change the profitability and margins just because you provide a cloud service. Can you? Well the answer is yes, if you do it right ... With over 10 partners in the Citrix Service Provider program today, we have a pretty good idea of what works, what does not and where money is.
to start with the mentality of an organized set of applications (we call Seamless Apps) or an entire office (we think by definition includes applications) must be done with a scale the mind. By sharing resource pools and increase the size of the offer, associated costs may decrease. The more personalized / complicated supply, less infrastructure, maintenance, and support service level agreements can be exploited. By creating an environment that allows the creation of "Golden Image" provisioning and management, margins increase with volume.
This is very important for service providers that want to offer hosted applications and desktops. Unfortunately, the managed service provider industry did not grow up with that mindset. In fact, much of the revenue from this model (more) operations came loaded in professional services to manage all of the customization and the complexity of the individual out corporate IT site. While still a profitable business, many service providers are now asking, is their a better way to develop my business. Well Citrix has developed a comprehensive approach that takes account of shared resources in the data center and automation of the provisioning service.
Check it out .... and increase margins as you increase your volume.
