Telefónica Tech Becomes First IBM Partner in UK&I to Offer Apptio Cloudability as an MSP Service
Telefónica Tech is excited to announce it is the first IBM Partner in the UK&I region to offer the Apptio Cloudability tool under an MSP licence. Previously, Apptio’s leading FinOps tool was only available through individual purchases, but Apptio’s new MSP model allows Telefónica Tech to provide it as part of its managed cloud services for multiple customers.
Alex Smith, CTO, Cloud at Telefónica Tech UK&I, “Being able to offer IBM Apptio Cloudability to our MSP customers is a major step forward in our capabilities. This tool gives customers the ability to analyse cloud spend across multiple clouds through a simple, yet powerful interface. It is a key component of our FinOps practice that enables customers to extract maximum value from their cloud spend, making it a vital tool for managing cloud costs effectively.
Cloudability aligns perfectly with our goal to help customers modernise their applications and transform their cloud operations. We’re excited to showcase its benefits across various sectors and are eager to see the positive impact it will have on our customers looking to leverage FinOps.
Delivering this platform as part of our strategic partnership with IBM is another key step in our cloud journey to build a transformative cloud solutions and services portfolio that brings the best industry capabilities to our customers.
Adolfo Hernandez Pulido Technology Managing Director, Telefónica, IBM Technology, Global, “We are thrilled to collaborate with Telefónica Tech UK&I, a trusted IBM Partner providing best-in-class cloud managed services to customers in the region. Leveraging Cloudability MSP, Telefónica Tech will accelerate the delivery of cloud optimisation and enhance customer experience throughout all phases of the FinOps journey.
Apptio is committed to delivering innovative technology that allows partners to deliver exceptional and differentiated services; this complementary partnership makes perfect sense.”
Telefónica Tech UK&I’s pioneering adoption of Apptio Cloudability as an MSP service is transforming how customers manage their cloud expenditures.
