CSC also announced a “Business-First

Approach” designed to provide any enterprise with the guidance to
transform existing business processes or enable innovation that was

never possible before the advent of cloud.

“As cloud services evolve and line of

business end users realize the benefits of automated, on-demand

provisioning, cloud decision makers, particularly CTOs are better

positioned to move beyond running day-to-day IT operations and

participate more fully in activities that contribute to the

enterprise bottom line,” said Melanie Posey, Research Director,

IDC. “Cloud makes it easier for IT leaders to transform knowledge

of business dynamics and related technology opportunities into

actionable strategies, resulting in improved alignment of business

objectives and IT,” Posey further added.
