Savvis selected Reflex VMC based on the solution's depth of security and breadth of system management capabilities, which have been perceived as barriers to user organizations looking to adopt external cloud strategies. The solution will enable Savvis to have a cloud distribution system to allocate services to customers and will provide them with expanded options for their service catalog offerings.
Reflex VMC will provide Savvis Project Spirit Cloud customers with an enterprise virtual firewall, which performs virtual machine to virtual machine blocking via kernel-level technology based on VMware's VMsafe partner program. Furthermore, Reflex VMC will enable joint customers to manage policies in the virtual environment through an API designed cloud interface.
"We're pleased to provide enabling virtual security and management technologies through Reflex VMC to assist Savvis in serving their enterprise Cloud customers," said Pete Privateer, CEO of Reflex Systems. "Reflex VMC provides proven innovation and award-winning features that ensure success for organizations implementing cloud infrastructure strategies."
"The dynamic nature of Cloud infrastructure demands innovative solutions to meet the unique security and management challenges that the environment presents," said Ken Owens, Savvis vice president of security and virtualization technologies. "Reflex VMC meets the challenge and provides this functionality at the core of the infrastructure, giving us the security and management solutions we need without impacting performance."
Savvis' Project Spirit cloud platform will power the industry's first enterprise-class Virtual Private Data Center with multi-tiered Quality of Service capabilities. Project Spirit focuses on complete virtual data center provisioning that extends far beyond the simple application deployment designs available in many cloud service offerings today. Savvis expects to launch the beta version of the new offering later this year and believes it will be the industry's most feature-rich cloud delivery platform available for the enterprise.
VMware, Savvis and Reflex will also host a free Webinar on 'Enabling Cloud Computing for your Enterprise' next month. The Webinar takes place Tuesday, October 6, at 2pm ET/11am PT. Space is limited. Reserve your seat now at: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/679833250.
