BOSTON, MA — (Marketwired) — 10/02/13 — , the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) company that completely reengineered the delivery of cloud computing, today added to its growing list of Managed Service Provider (MSP) partners by welcoming Blue LAN Group to the program. This comes as company evangelist Pete Johnson gets set to address MSPWorld attendees about gaining more revenue through cloud computing services.
prides itself on offering top-level service to a host of small and medium sized businesses (SMBs), including law firms, startups, venture capital firms and religious institutions. Blue LAN Group got its start when companies with on-premise data centers and closets full of hardware for most of its existence began looking for offsite backup, so Blue LAN Group responded by running hardware in co-location facilities. But as that hardware reached end-of-life status, the company looked for a simpler, cost-effective and virtual offering.
“We like that ProfitBricks- entire experience behaves exactly like a physical server and data center environment,” said Ed O-Connor, vice president and CTO at Blue LAN Group. “ProfitBricks does not place any restrictions on the design of the networks we need in the cloud. We can create as many sub-networks as necessary — add load balancers and firewalls — in a flexible manner, anywhere, structuring client networks exactly as we would in their office or a traditional data center.”
ProfitBricks provides Blue LAN Group with the right mix of performance, profitability and service that enables the MSP to not only provide top service to its customers, but to do so at a competitive price while still making good profit margins.
“Our goal is to become a true partner. That-s why we focus on offering cloud computing infrastructure, not on creating our own managed services offerings,” said ProfitBricks USA CEO Robert Rizika. “We-re not interested in competing with MSPs. We want to provide them with the right mix of price and performance so they can build solid offerings on our platform.”

On October 7, ProfitBricks- will discuss how more MSPs can follow in Blue LAN Group-s footsteps during a . The shootout takes place at 3:30 p.m. at the San Jose Marriott. Johnson will discuss the role that IaaS providers can play in helping MSPs derive more revenue from their existing customers. Other participants will focus on storage and backup.
