NEW YORK, Nov. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The CIO's job today is not about components, not about networks, not about data centers. It's about aligning technology with business objectives. Users want on-demand access to compute resources that solve real-world business problems. And according to Logicalis US, an international IT solutions and managed services provider (www.us.logicalis.com), companies want technology that can be both delivered and consumed in the most cost-effective and efficient ways possible to meet end users' increasingly complex demands. The cloud was designed to fit that bill.
