Unified Support Services Explained: A Tale of Two CIOs

Unified Support Services Explained: A Tale of Two CIOs

The story of unified support

What is unified support? This tale of two CIOs, Miguel and Nick, brings to life the difference between using a legacy model to run enterprise applications and using a modern approach.
