Customers Can Outsource IP Application Performance With Single Point of
Accountability

MUMBAI, India, July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Business' Remote IP Application
Management service is now available in India, enabling India-headquartered
customers and local subsidiaries of multinational companies to improve the
performance of their online applications while reducing operational
expenditure and downtime.

Verizon Remote IP Application Management enables businesses to outsource the
management and monitoring of their business-critical applications and

combines deep technological expertise with robust operational processes and
service automation to provide a comprehensive overview of application
performance.

The Verizon Business team supports the day-to-day running of customers'
business operations, providing a single point of accountability for the
performance of the IP environment, and helping to maintain functional,
responsive and secure processes, and mission-critical systems. The team
combines consultancy and IP application-management services in a remote
operations center environment to quickly identify -- and resolve -- any
potential issues in the customer's distributed systems. An easy-to-use portal
offers the customer a single, comprehensive, near real-time view of the
customer's system and service information; importantly, the service is also
tailored to suit each customer's business needs.

current economic climate, companies are constantly looking for ways to do more
with less. With dispersed operational environments now part of daily business
life, services such as ours enable organizations to ensure that their
business-critical applications are operating as effectively as possible
without the need for significant investment in internal resources. Instead,
they can leverage our proven expertise in helping our customers to do business
better, and rest assured that their IP applications are in safe hands."

design, operations readiness assessment, systems instrumentation and
monitoring, change management, problem management, capacity and performance
