RackWare Opens Channel Partner Program

For service providers and VARs

RackWare, Inc., a software provider that integrates data center and cloud resources into a scalable and managed computing environment, announced the opening of its Channel Partner Program to service providers and VARs.

The expanded program allows more partners and customers to benefit from the RackWare advantage: the ability to flexibly move, protect and scale workloads from anywhere-to-anywhere, including cloud, virtual and physical infrastructures.

RackWare has already made momentum with key service provider and VAR partnerships, including with IBM SoftLayer, CenturyLink, QTS, Peer 1, OnRamp, Pea Soup, Entisys and MBS Tech Services.

Since 2009, the company has moved thousands of workloads for hundreds of customers, underscoring the need for application portability between sites and clouds. Its flexible and automated cloud management solution, RackWare Management Module (RMM), enables enterprises to move their workloads between private, public or hybrid cloud environments, while allowing them to expand and add cloud resources as needed.

Launched in July, the latest version of RackWare’s solution, RMM 3.0, now includes added cloud DR functionality. It lowers the cost of DR, allowing enterprises to ensure protection of mission-critical IT resources in case of planned and unplanned outages. With RMM 3.0, partners will enable customers to extend existing IT architecture into the cloud for minimal disruption.

We have had mutually profitable engagements with our existing Service Provider and VAR partners by helping their customers to easily migrate workloads to their cloud of choice,” said Sash Sunkara, CEO, RackWare. “We are delighted to open our partner program to additional partners to help them dramatically reduce the complexity involved in cloud migrations.

The latest RackWare Management Module release brings us tremendous intelligence and flexibility in building a DR plan with a failover site in SoftLayer. With it, our customers are able to dramatically reduce the complexity and cost of their DR projects while protecting their crucial workloads,” said Mac Devine, IBM distinguished engineer, director of CloudFirst innovation and CTO, IBM’s cloud services division.

We are pleased to partner with RackWare to help our customers dramatically reduce the cost and complexity involved in cloud migration and cloud DR projects. RackWare’s innovative technology allows them to quickly and intelligently migrate virtual, as well as physical workloads, thus helping our customers to ‘cloudify’ all of their workloads effortlessly,” said Shoichi Morita, CEO, Networld Corporation in Japan.

While efficient scaling to the cloud has been a topic of discussion in the industry for a few years, RackWare is one of the few vendors with a solution today that allows for cloud scaling in the real world. We are pleased to resell RackWare Management Module and help our customers solve the DR, migration and scaling problems that they face today,” said Mike Strohl, CEO, Entisys Solutions and Agile360, Inc.
