CloudGenera Enhances Vendor-Agnostic Visual Cloud Decisioning Software with New Service Provider Catalog OptionsCHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- CloudGenera, the industry's best-in-class independent cloud decision engine, today announced it has enhanced its CloudAdopt service catalog with new provider content for Expedient and IBM BlueMix with additional content coming soon for Armor, Centurylink, Navisite, NTT Data, OVH, Rackspace, Sungard, Tierpoint, and Virtustream. The new content allows enterprises to visualize the benefits hosted service providers can provide to their business as organizations transition their application portfolio to hybrid cloud. "Cloud is not a one size fits all market. Each supplier offers a different level of service," said Brian Kelly, CEO of CloudGenera. "With the addition of this new content to the CloudGenera platform we are better empowering organizations to discover their right mix of suppliers across the spectrum of cloud alternatives. Hosted service providers deliver a unique value to the consumer by providing a level of service familiar to the data center yet not available in the self- service public cloud." By adding a significant number of VMware vCloud Air Network hosted service providers to the CloudAdopt service catalog, CloudGenera is providing a holistic view of what the cloud market can offer to an enterprise. Enterprises can now evaluate data center modernization options alongside dedicated, community and multitenant public cloud providers through visual scorecards – easily digestible, clean, graphic formats that can be quickly interpreted. The scorecards display an overall CloudRank score to show compatibility with he top cloud solutions that align with customer needs, as well as rankings for service level, security and technology for each matching cloud solution. The scorecards also provide financial analysis by showing the cost to run on the recommended provider versus the cost to run on the model a customer currently uses. Users can then go beyond the scorecard to access details of the configuration of services from the provider that meets their needs, as well as costs associated with the services. Bryan Smith, SVP and Chief Strategy Officer Expedient, "Expedient offers differentiated cloud solutions that simplify complex capabilities for organizations to implement and maintain on their own but customers continue to be confused by the myriad of cloud options that are available in the market for them to consider. CloudGenera is a platform that helps us guide our customer to the best solution to meet their needs in minutes, not months." Organizations can access the new content as a part of their CloudAssist Mobile or Browser subscriptions. Contact your preferred provider to secure the option to compare their catalog against Amazon Web Services, Google Compute, Microsoft Azure, Oracle Public Cloud.
