Contents

Analyzes the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of Cloud Service Provider, Rackspace. Rackspace can generate audit reports for ISO 27001, ISO 9001, BS7799, HIPAA, PCI, and SSAE16.

Omdia’s ICT Enterprise Insights 2019/20 survey indicates that as cloud strategy matures, organizations are moving more of their mission-critical core systems, including ERP, CRM, and databases, to the cloud. This shift is changing customers’ requirements, and the cloud must now be enterprise-grade to support this. Cloud provider Rackspace is a mature company with 20 years’ experience as a hosting company, although it does not have the market profile of some of its competitors. It ensures that it delivers the cloud services that customers want or need at a price and quality that is acceptable.
