SANTA CLARA, CA, Aug 24, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Ensim Corporation, the leading provider of solutions to manage,
orchestrate, and automate private, public and hybrid cloud
infrastructure, today announced the availability of Ensim Unify
Office 365 Cloud Connector, enabling service providers to automate
the provisioning and management processes necessary to efficiently
bundle Microsoft cloud services with their own offerings to their
resellers and customers worldwide.
Ensim Unify Service Provider Edition is the industry's most advanced
and comprehensive platform and control panel for service providers
who want to offer hosted applications and services from their
datacenter and resell third party cloud service bundles. Unify offers
a complete, centralized, relational platform that manages the
creation, activation, configuration, and administration of an entire
application and service offering. It delivers superior security and
automation functionality with connectors for over 50 applications and
cloud services, as well as the ability to quickly and easily add
custom connectors via an industry-proven SDK.
Microsoft Office 365(R) provides service providers with a syndication
offering that allows anywhere access for their customers to work
together and includes features like email, web conferencing,
documents, and calendars. With the Unify Office 365 Connector, Ensim
offers service providers an easy and effective way to automate the
complex set of manual tasks necessary to capitalize on and
efficiently bundle Microsoft cloud services.
The Ensim Unify Office 365 Cloud Connector includes the following
capabilities:
-- Advanced Subscription Control - Supports the creation of different
types of accounts as well as creates and tracks different types of
subscriptions for a service provider offering syndication of Office
365.
-- Global Access - Enables service provider administrators to register
the countries of their target customers and designate the specific
languages they want to offer, as well as configure a Microsoft Partner
ID and/or a Billing ID (provided by Microsoft) for specific API
calls.
-- Flexible Implementation and Enhanced Security - Implements a
Background Agent and a Callback Agent as separate installers that
service providers can install on a separate server infrastructure
designated through Ensim Unify to configure security and certificates
for API calls that help keep the infrastructure secure.
-- Role-based Delegation and Workflow - Allows service providers to
decide whether organization administrators can subscribe and/or
unsubscribe from various plans or require that they request the
service provider's administrator to complete this task.
"We specifically designed Ensim Unify with the critical operational
challenges of deploying and managing hosted applications and cloud
services in mind," said Scott Young, VP of marketing and product
management at Ensim Corporation. "With the release of Ensim Unify
Office 365 Cloud Connector, we will enable service providers to
better deliver, bundle, and differentiate hosted services at a lower
cost and a higher ARPU with unmatched reliability, flexibility, and
speed. The Office 365 Connector is just the latest of many released
and to-be-released cloud service connectors allowing service
providers to rapidly expand their service portfolios without
deploying additional internal infrastructure."
