To support the new business, Datotel also is pleased to announce the addition of eight new employees in 2011.  

"I'm very happy with the accomplishments and hard work of our employees in continuing to bring innovative information technology and management services to companies and organizations throughout the St. Louis area," said David Brown, president of Datotel.

The versatility of cloud computing services can provide benefits to an array of businesses and organizations, which is reflected in the diverse roster of new clients Datotel added during the first quarter, including:  Meridian Health, Buckingham Asset Management, The Musketeer Group and Catholic Charities.

In addition, Datotel is assisting the Greater St. Louis Area Council of Boy Scouts of America in transitioning and upgrading their IT services, which includes IT consulting as well as on-demand service and support.

"Datotel is providing us with excellent service and support at a critical time," said Ronald S.

Cloud computing allows companies big and small to gain access to virtualized and dynamically scalable computing resources on an as-needed basis.  Many companies move to cloud-based computing to easily and cost-effectively add servers and storage capacity as well as backup data.  Often accelerating the growth of cloud computing is the ability for companies to replace old servers with cutting-edge technology and avoid high upfront costs.
