Chilean service provider, IIA, has selected Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator to power its new cloud services. With Flexiant, IIA has a complete solution to deliver cloud services to its 3,000 clients and the market quickly.
After using a cloud management solution for over a year that was not service-provider ready, IIA needed an alternative solution that could meet its needs to deliver cloud services. IIA evaluated OpenStack, but because time to market was important, the service provider required another solution. Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator became the natural choice for IIA due to its focus on the service provider market combined with the breadth of functionality.
With Flexiant's cloud orchestration solution, IIA now has a self-service solution for automated provisioning of cloud services, combined with automated metering, billing and payments, backup and storage. Juan Carlos Olivera, Internet Division Manager, IIA said, "We liked Flexiant because it isn't a labor intensive solution. It is easy to support and maintain plus it is installed and running quickly. It gave us a complete solution to support the full customer journey and enables us to grow and expand with market demand."
IIA is also making use of Flexiant's two public network models, both of which support a complete range of network services including DHCP and integrated firewalling and offer complete IP address management from a complete self-service UI for allocating IP addresses to customers and individual machines and for automatically removing them when customers no longer require them (so they can be re-used elsewhere).
George Knox, CEO, Flexiant said, "To compete against others in the cloud industry, service providers need a cloud management solution that helps them orchestrate the cloud differently, while getting them to market quickly. IIA is a perfect example of a service provider wanting to easily support its existing customer base with a cloud orchestration solution from Flexiant that gives them all the functionality and features needed to launch cloud services today and then extend them as the business grows."
