Teamcenter on the cloud

Teamcenter® software is built on an open, future-proof architecture that gives you the flexibility to use your preferred technology platform and provider. Now you have the choice to implement Teamcenter on the cloud, using an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model, which moves some or all of your PLM computing infrastructure to a 3rd party cloud service provider. This approach is part of the trend of avoiding the capital intensive practice of owning your own hardware while providing you with implementation flexibility with certified cloud IaaS partners.

Faster time-to-value
With Teamcenter on the cloud through IaaS partners, you need only to perform configuration and user validation in order to implement PLM. Using virtual machine image templates, Siemens PLM Software or partners can rapidly deploy Teamcenter allowing you to start using your Teamcenter environment without delay.

Lower cost of ownership
Using Teamcenter on the cloud gives you fast and flexible deployment of Teamcenter environments, as well as the ability to dynamically scale infrastructure up and down based on your project needs. You can use the service to instantly engage infrastructure resources without heavy upfront investments.
