Boston Limited, now in its 19th year as a distribution partner for Super Micro Computer®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI), are delighted to present their latest Cloud based platform at Cloud Expo Europe 2012; designed, developed and deployed in partnership with Interxion and Flexiant. For more information and demonstrations visit Boston on stand #819.
Boston's Cloud service was recently deployed at Interxion's Cloud Testlab, which is a turnkey cloud hosting test environment that enables service providers and system integrators to test and develop cloud services at high speed and with best-in-class performance guarantees.
Located in Interxion's City of London data centre, this Testlab deployment utilizes the latest Extility platform solution from Flexiant and is housed on Boston's high performance, highly dense 2U Twin² server solution.
The Boston Cloud platform, based on the Boston Quattro 2296-T that provides a unique combination of four hot swap nodes within a single 2U enclosure to provide unrivalled performance capabilities, deploys Flexiant's Extility solution, which is a fully automated software suite that enables managed service providers, hosting providers and data center operators the ability to offer cloud-computing services to customers.
Users can now access this Cloud Testlab deployment online via [www.interxion.com/cloudtestlab/UK] and test the PoC free of charge for a limited period.
Greg McCulloch, UK Managing Director, Interxion, commented, "The rapid adoption of cloud computing has seen cloud-based services become a central part of business strategy. The launch of this UK Cloud Testlab deployment further reflects our commitment to the cloud and offers both customers and prospects the opportunity to test and develop cloud services at high speed and with best-in-class performance guarantees."
"Flexiant enables hosting companies to compete in the cloud computing virtualisation sector on a level playing field with global market leaders who have proprietary, rapid-provisioning infrastructures," said Robert Karssiens, Director Sales & Marketing at Flexiant. "Extility is a proven, credible and visionary alternative to the cost of developing a cloud computing platform in-house with real time user interface and in-built billing engines capabilities."
"We are delighted that Interxion has chosen Boston Limited and Supermicro® as hardware providers for the launch of this Cloud Testlab," said Manoj Nayee, Managing Director of Boston Limited. "Boston Limited has been developing high performance, energy efficient solutions in conjunction with Supermicro® for nearly 20 years, and our latest offerings for the cloud arena incorporate advanced software features to create Enterprise class solutions, giving your business the ability to scale processing capabilities that mirror your exact requirements to save you space, power and money."
