Rackspace
Hosting claims to have launched Asia’s first hybrid cloud powered
by OpenStack, the open source cloud computing platform. The new
public cloud joins Rackspace’s existing portfolio of private cloud
and dedicated solutions to complete the Open Cloud Company’s Hybrid
Cloud offering to businesses throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
“We
are excited to launch Asia’s first hybrid cloud powered by
OpenStack,” said Ajit Melarkode, managing director of Rackspace
Asia Pacific. “OpenStack already gives thousands of our customers
access to the power of open standards and enables them to enjoy
freedom from vendor lock-in as they open new gateways to faster
innovation through cloud computing.”
Rackspace
identifies India as a robust and upcoming market, seen in their
decision to launch the first hybrid cloud in Asia powered by
Openstack®. The public cloud services
market in India is forecast to grow 36 percent in 2013 to total $443
million, up from $326 million in 2012, according to Gartner, Inc.
Studies done by Deloitte indicate that organizations that can bridge
hyper hybrid clouds with their core systems will be at the forefront
to elevate business performance with the next wave of digital
innovation.
The
Rackspace Hybrid Cloud encompasses public cloud, private cloud and
dedicated servers, working alone or together in any combination in a
unified infrastructure, all backed by Fanatical Support®. It enables
businesses to tailor their architecture to create the best fit for
their unique set of applications and workloads.
