Too much data for cloud analytics? AWS will send you a box

October. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -Cloud Cruiser, a leading provider of software solutions for hybrid cloud analytics, today announced the results of a Dimensional Research survey of IT professionals who attended the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Global Summit held in San Francisco and New York City in April and July, respectively.

Rackspace will blend in automation, technology, and human expertise to deliver ongoing architecture, management, security services, and ongoing operations. Amazon executive Terry Wise was quoted as saying “A growing number of businesses who want the benefits of the AWS Cloud will find value in working with AWS Managed Service Partners like Rackspace”. “With Avere’s CloudFusion on the AWS Marketplace, AWS customers can further leverage AWS products and services to benefit from the increased flexibility, scalability and cost-effectiveness of the cloud”. Avere CloudFusion is based on the same technology and brings similar capabilities to smaller data sets that use the AWS Cloud. “They were willing to look at how to evolve their managed services offering to fit AWS”. A 21-day free trial is available (AWS usage fees may apply).
