NEC Corp on Thursday announced the launch of sales activities for a new cloud-based service, the NEC Cloud IaaS, to begin in October 2013. This service will support a wide range of customer demands, while ensuring performance, reliability and cost effectiveness.

The service is expected to launch in April 2014 and to operate from the NEC Kanagawa Data Center scheduled to open in January 2014.

The NEC Cloud IaaS provides ICT resources as a service, including servers and storage, while featuring two service models that consist of the NEC Cloud Iaas (Standard), featuring highly valued functions at a low cost, and the NEC Cloud IaaS (High Availability), featuring high performance and high reliability.

The NEC Cloud IaaS also provides a self-service portal that enables customers to efficiently operate the NEC Cloud IaaS, as well as customers’ internally built systems or other cloud-based services through a single, conveniently integrated, management screen.

Moreover, these services will be provided through the newly established NEC Kanagawa Data Center, which will capitalize on the latest low power consumption servers and air conditioning technologies.
