Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Rackspace is used to augment the current IT department. They are used to manage and support Azure and some security services including firewalls and IPSec VPN termination. They assist with the support of process-oriented tasks like patching, setting up servers in Azure, support for network services in Azure, and setting up and tearing down of VPNs. They also provide redundancy to existing services.
Pros and Cons
  • Azure support for processes
  • Network services and support
  • Architecture review
Likelihood to Recommend
Augment current IT staff. Repeated tasks that can be part of a runbook. Setting up and tearing down of network services and servers.
Return on Investment
  • Less time spent supporting services and more time can be spent on architecture.
  • Off hour support.
  • Initial review of current architecture and recommendations.
