NEC Cloud offerings share three core characteristics:

The NEC Cloud portfolio includes four core solutions: Private Infrastructure as a Service; Unified Communications as a Service; Enterprise Applications as a Service; and Testing as a Service.
Solutions are delivered through three deployment models: private cloud, hybrid cloud, and public cloud.
“The NEC Cloud offerings are a natural extension of NEC’s proven track record of delivering business value through integrated solutions that leverage our broad global technology portfolio,” said Harumi Ikeda, executive vice president, Cloud Business Development, NEC Corporation of America. “We understand our customers’ challenges as they move to the cloud, and our consultative approach simplifies these complexities throughout the cloud lifecycle.”

NEC will continue to focus its cloud solutions on higher value infrastructure, applications and managed services that enable business transformation of the enterprise.
