Cloudscaling Reduces the Complexity of Bringing OpenStack into the
Enterprise with New Cloud Concierge Service
LAS VEGAS, April 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloudscaling, the trusted
leader in OpenStack-powered IaaS, today announced its new Cloud
Concierge Services at the Interop show in Las Vegas, Booth #621 Pod 3.
Cloud Concierge provides enterprises with the services and resources
required to predictably and reliably deploy a modern,
OpenStack-powered private or hybrid cloud solution. According to
Accenture, 46% of all IT spending by 2016 will be for cloud-related
platforms and applications. Cloud Concierge was created to help
accelerate this massive migration to cloud specifically for enterprise
customers adopting OpenStack to achieve greater agility, transform IT
service delivery and create differentiated business value.
Cloud Concierge Services can be employed with any version of
OpenStack, including do-it-yourself deployments created in-house. The
service is available to any organization looking to evaluate an
existing private or hybrid OpenStack cloud deployment or implement a
new cloud starting at ground zero. Cloud Concierge, along with the
company's Open Cloud System (OCS), makes Cloudscaling the first in the
OpenStack cloud market to have a comprehensive product and services
offering.
"Many IT professionals today are unsure how to adopt OpenStack or
leverage it for business and IT transformation," said Azmir Mohamed,
VP Products at Cloudscaling. "We created Cloud Concierge to reduce the
complexity of deploying OpenStack and enable IT teams to gain the
skills and insight required for operating in the modern cloud era. Our
Solution Architects take an organization from zero to full-production
cloud in less than six months, all at an all-inclusive price with no
costly surprises, and in a way that makes sense for their particular
business."
Cloudscaling Concierge Services are available in three phases:
pre-production, production and post-production.
Pre-Production
-- Provide a baseline understanding of how OpenStack operates and the
use cases for which it is best suited
-- Identify and prioritize potential OpenStack use cases for the
organization
-- Assess the organization's infrastructure to identify opportunities
for improvement
-- OpenStack Administrator training
-- Proof-of-Concept test that runs on customers' choice of existing or
new hardware
Production
-- Deployment on customers' choice of existing or new hardware for
evaluation and fine-tuning
-- Developer training for application developers building new or
migrating existing apps to OpenStack
-- Develop an application deployment guide specific to the
organization's needs that includes all steps for deploying and running
applications on OpenStack
Post Production
-- Identify AWS use case migration, and help move the application and
provides complete documentation of the migration process
-- Administrator and developer training on methodologies for migrating
an AWS application to OpenStack
-- Certification and audit services suitable for any OpenStack
deployment, including those not deployed by Cloudscaling
Cloud Concierge Services are available immediately from Cloudscaling
with additional offerings available in the second half of 2014. More
