Variable demand
Teams that need to scale infrastructure up and down without over-provisioning.

Questions about this service
What does CDS manage in Managed IaaS?+
CDS provisions and administers standard builds, access and platform operations; monitors health and capacity; coordinates patching, changes, incidents and vendor escalation; and reports on service performance.
How is Managed IaaS priced?+
It is designed to be consumption-based. Commercial model, minimum term and service levels are defined per engagement once scope and tooling are aligned.
Where do customer responsibilities begin?+
The responsibility model (covering CDS, customer, OEM and third-party roles) is defined during design so boundaries are explicit before launch.
