ATLANTA, GA — (Marketwired) — 07/31/13 — Cirrity, the secure and compliant cloud service provider, ranks among the world-s Top 100 Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), according to Nine Lives Media-s third-annual Talkin- Cloud 100 report. The Top 100 CSPs generated more than $15.7 billion in combined cloud services revenues in 2012, up nearly 37 percent, according to the report, which is available now by visiting .
“We are pleased to crack the Top 100 Cloud Services Providers during our first full year as an independent company,” said Andrew Albrecht, Chief Operating Officer of Cirrity. “When the top three are Salesforce.com, Amazon and Microsoft, you-re in very good company.”
Cirrity was spun out of BlueWave Computing, a highly regarded managed service provider (MSP) in Atlanta. This gives Cirrity deep insight into the needs of MSPs and other channel partners, said Albrecht. Cirrity recently rolled out vStream, a Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) managed solution that automates real-time disaster recovery to the cloud. vStream operates on a secure and compliant cloud infrastructure built on enterprise-class hardware, and is PCI and HIPAA compliant.
vStream assures information-dependent organizations in industries such as financial, commercial, healthcare and enterprise that their data is completely safe and readily available should a system failure take place. vStream offers the industry-s best recovery times, with Recovery Point Objective (RPO) in seconds and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) in minutes, and eliminates the need to match storage-to-storage hardware.
The Talkin- Cloud 100 report is based on data from Talkin- Cloud-s online survey, conducted January through May 2013. The Talkin- Cloud 100 report recognizes top cloud service providers based on such metrics as annual cloud services revenue growth (both in actual dollars and in percentage growth rates).
“Nine Lives Media and Talkin- Cloud congratulate Cirrity,” said Amy Katz, president of Nine Lives Media, a division of Penton. “The Talkin- Cloud 100 honor arrives amid a land grab in the cloud computing market. And the Talkin- Cloud 100 companies are leading that land grab.”
