SANTA CLARA, CA — (Marketwired) — 10/07/14 — , the software provider that integrates data center and cloud resources into a scalable and intelligently managed computing environment, today announced the opening of its Channel Partner Program to Service Providers and VARs globally. The expanded program allows more partners and customers to benefit from the RackWare advantage: the ability to flexibly move, protect and scale workloads from anywhere-to-anywhere, including cloud, virtual and physical infrastructures.
RackWare has already made significant momentum with key Service Provider and VAR partnerships, including with IBM SoftLayer, CenturyLink, QTS, Peer 1, OnRamp, Pea Soup, Entisys and MBS Tech Services.
Since 2009, the company has moved thousands of workloads for hundreds of customers, underscoring the need for application portability between sites and clouds. RackWare–s flexible and automated cloud management solution, RackWare Management Module (RMM), enables enterprises to easily move their workloads seamlessly between private, public or hybrid cloud environments, while allowing them to expand and add cloud resources as needed.
Launched in July, the latest version of RackWare–s solution, RMM 3.0, now includes added cloud disaster recovery functionality. RMM 3.0 drastically lowers the cost of disaster recovery, allowing enterprises to ensure protection of mission-critical IT resources in case of planned and unplanned outages. With RMM 3.0, partners will enable customers to seamlessly extend existing IT architecture into the cloud for minimal disruption.
