(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Remote IT support systems provider CentraStage (www.centrastage.com) is using NTT Europe Online’s (www.ntteuropeonline.com) virtualized managed hosting platform to deliver its remote monitoring and management solutions on the cloud.
Relied upon by a wide range of IT support companies, managed service providers and major organisations, CentraStage’s device management platform provides simplifies IT support, enabling IT support teams to monitor and manage multiple remote computers over any network, bringing visibility and control to the service provider via a single web-based management console.
According to NTT Europe Online’s Wednesday announcement, its virtualized hosting solution gives CentraStage a reliable and faster platform from which clients can access its web-based remote management platform. As usage of the multi-tenancy platform grows, CentraStage is able to quickly and easily increase server resources via NTT’s online management portal. For customers with additional security and compliance considerations, CentraStage offers dedicated ‘private cloud’ solutions using NTT Europe Online’s flexible virtualization capabilities.
“Our customers rely on our systems to access and support over a hundred thousand remote devices, so having a secure and reliable hosting environment provided by NTT Europe Online is essential,” CentraStage managing director Christian Nagele said in a statement. “Making our services available via the cloud was vital in growing the footprint of our business and making it more widely accessible. With CentraStage now gaining increasing traction and profile in the US, it is also important that we have a hosting partner who can provide load-balanced infrastructure around the globe. NTT ticks all the boxes in this regard.”
CentraStage’s decision to offer its platform via the cloud has ensured its services are available to a wider range of clients, both in terms of the size of end-users and geographic location; attracting customers across the globe with a growing number of ICT support companies signing up to use its services from the US, and even New Zealand.
Bob Welton, UK Director of Sales & Marketing at NTT Europe Online, said CentraStage is an excellent example of how service providers can help improve their online services. “The cloud delivery model CentraStage has implemented allows it to offer a faster and more reliable platform, while the use of virtualization helps deliver true economies of scale.”
The basis for NTT’s European service stems from an expanded agreement announced in June 2009, in which NTT Europe Online and OpSource (www.opsource.net) extended their strategic partnership to include comprehensive technical and operational support for businesses looking to deliver on-demand applications and services via the Internet in Europe. Initially hitting the US market in November 2008, the new partnership between the two companies merges OpSource Application Operations with NTT Europe Online’ s secure managed hosting and NTT’s Tier 1 global IP network.
