(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) – UK cloud solutions provider Flexiant (www.flexiant.com) announced on Wednesday that Denmark-based web hosting provider Netgroup (www.netgroup.dk) will now deploy Flexiant’s Extility cloud virtualization platform.
According to the press release, Flexiant’s Extility software enables Netgroup to create and run a cloud platform while integrating it into Netgroup’s existing software and hardware investments.
“The key requirement for any cloud platform is that it enables, through a high degree of automation, a company or hosting provider to respond rapidly to changes in customer demand and provides absolute clarity around how that platform will be monetised and consumption measured,” Robert Karssiens, Flexiant’s director of sales and marketing said in a statement. “Provisioning and reconfiguring with Extility takes just seconds or minutes instead of hours or days. Business processes are wholly automated from initial provisioning through to billing and charge back. Resources can be very quickly adapted to meet market place fluctuations, providing critical competitive edge in an ever more challenging environment.”
Flexiant says this deal marks the company’s first Extility implementation in the Nordic region.
“We want to work with Flexiant because its comprehensive and innovative Extility software offers the degree of flexibility we need to deal with the rapid expansion of our cloud services,” Jesper Dyhr of Netgroup said in a statement. “There’s also a natural fit in that we’re both companies that are excited to be trailblazing the development of cloud computing.”
