SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 12, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- “The NetApp SolidFire commitment to build and maintain integrations with
open source orchestration platforms that include Apache CloudStack, OpenStack, Docker, and Kubernetes has allowed our clients to
create performance-oriented storage services that meet their shared services customers’ needs,” says Marc Paré, vice president of
sales and marketing for CloudOps. “As technology migrates toward leveraging containers in the cloud, NetApp SolidFire brings very
friendly capabilities in terms of QoS and persistent storage for the containers, which are key challenges that multitenant service
providers are looking to solve.”
CloudOps, based in Montreal, Canada, is a cloud consulting and services company focused on
helping customers own their destiny in the cloud. CloudOps uses open source cloud platforms and networking, and offers
multicloud solutions for software companies, enterprises, and telecommunications providers.
To support its customers in monetizing infrastructure as a service (IaaS), CloudOps created CloudMC, on-premises subscription software that provides a one-stop self-service portal for
cloud service orchestrator management and provisioning, including product catalogs, licensing, billing, and metering. Powered by
all-flash storage from NetApp® (NASDAQ:NTAP) SolidFire®, the solution’s scale-out architecture makes it easy to add
capacity without complexity, while the automation features and the economies of deduplication and data compression provide
efficiency.
cloud.ca, a regional IaaS service, uses CloudMC for businesses that require some or all of their data to remain in Canada for
reasons of compliance, performance, cost, or privacy. Accessible in both English and French, cloud.ca is used by resellers, IT
administrators, developers, and DevOps teams as a scalable, reliable, and agile framework that optimizes costs and delivers
transparent reporting for chargeback. As a result of using CloudMC, cloud.ca can now offer performance-oriented storage, with
functions executable via application programming interfaces and persistent storage for Docker container environments. With CloudMC,
cloud.ca is confident and well positioned to support customer compliance, cost, and privacy concerns for the foreseeable
future.
