Rain helps organizations re-define their IT as a 'service' through the radical development and adoption of new technologies and business services, enabled by Intel platforms. In collaboration with Capgemini's Accelerated Solutions Environment (ASE), Rain facilitates the end of business as usual through a three-step process: Discover, Develop and Deliver.

Rain's collaborative environment provides organizations with the complete picture from business processing (SOE), to application services (SOA), to infrastructure (SOI).

Our unique approach helps organizations re-define their IT as a "service" through the radical development and adoption of new technologies and business services. In collaboration with Capgemini's Accelerated Solution Environment (ASE), Rain facilitates the end of business as usual through a three step process: 


Discover: Start the SOE journey with a detailed analysis on your competition, technology and industry trends, and your distinctive IT operations. This will accelerate the convergence of your business and technology challenges to create your solution roadmap.   


Develop: Utilize the latest SOA/SOI methodologies across the various reference architectures to expedite custom development of your software and hardware platforms.   


Deliver: Leverage pre-built vertical solutions and starter kits with fast prototyping capability to quicken the SOE implementation.   



At the end of this process, organizations will have a clear roadmap to becoming a Service-Oriented Enterprise. Companies that seek to make many of their core business processes plug and play, have the ability to turn raw data into real time intelligence, and to prioritize seamless integration between suppliers, customers, and employees.

  • Customized roadmap from business process assessment to service analysis and development to infrastructure migration.
  • Launch strategy for executives to get internal organizational alignment.
  • Live demos and proof-of-concepts for rapid, customized prototype development.
  • Reliable reference architecture for clients to deploy SOE solutions using industry standards in both software and hardware technology.
  • Real-time, continuous access to all deliverables via innovative collaboration tools.

  • Market leadership through rapid and radical development of new products and services to meet changing business needs.
  • Faster time-to-market and reduced development cycles.
  • Flexibility and agility of IT to meet business demands and address market changes.
