As various cloud services have become more popular, the management of their costs and data security has proven problematic for many companies. The Solita CloudBlox services help companies to better manage their complex multi-cloud environment, as well as its capacity, costs and data security.

Digitalisation, cost-efficiency and constantly growing need for changing fast have encouraged companies to flexibly use various cloud services, such as the AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud platforms. Still, the management of costs and data security of cloud services, for example, has proven more challenging than many of the companies expected. Companies also have difficulties in recruiting the cloud specialists they need. Modular Solita CloudBlox helps clarify the operating models and makes the management of cloud environments more efficient. It has been designed to scale according to the company’s needs, size and required cloud expertise.

Solita CloudBlox is developed based on the needs and concerns of our customer companies. I believe that the service solution will be the desired answer to our customers’ questions relating to cloud service management and its effective use”, says Jari Jolula, Director of Cloud Services at Solita.

This improved manageability and predictability of cloud environments together with the standardised operating models and tools provided via the Solita CloudBlox service solution also make it quicker to start new business development and digital services projects.

“The cloud journey has been more difficult than many companies expected – it might have required a lot more time and money than planned.
