The Most in 2019 Park Place Technologies Delivering Exceptional Maintenance Services In this digital world, most work equipment relies on framed architecture with stable storage, server and networking hardware.

Shaping the Future Taking Artificial Intelligence, digital transformation, and cybersecurity into consideration, Park Place is shaping its future in order to serve value added services to its customers. As Artificial Intelligence continues to expand in adoption, its benefits are now being recognized at the enterprise level.

This is an area where Park Place sees tremendous growth opportunity, specifically when it comes to service and support. According to Park Place, as companies innovate, there needs to be a conscious effort to efficiently allocate budget. Third party maintenance services can go a long way in freeing up mindshare and budget for IT programs looking to shift resources towards the future. Secondly, servers that are running software application designed to detect and act on cyber-attacks play a very important role in cybersecurity. From the company’s standpoint, supporting hardware and ensuring that server hardware is available to run securitybased applications is the key for the security of its customers.
