After reading about the offshoring failure, I had another question about
offshoring. Does anyone know of a company that has actually moved their
computers to another country, and offshored the whole shootin match? I'm
thinking mostly MVS sites, but other large operations such as Unix sites
could also be done this way.
I know many large companies such as IBM have computers in the countries they
do business in. I'm not counting that as offshoring, as I'm sure they use
the computers in other countries to support their business in those
countries. I'm talking about offshoring to say India, or Malaysia, where
the company doesn't have any business presence there.
Personally, I think any company that put their computers and data in another
country where they didn't have a business presence - I wouldn't want to do
business with them.
