OpSource Integrates Its Orchestration Stack with VCE's Vblock to Build Clouds for Service Providers

We announced an alliance with VCE, a consortium of VMware, Cisco and EMC, to build public clouds for service providers. VCE sells an integrated cloud infrastructure stack built called a Vblock(TM).  A Vblock provides the compute, network, storage and virtualization to build a public or private cloud; however, it does not include the orchestration, billing, API and user controls that enable a service provider to build a complete pay-as-you-go public cloud service.  Our partnership seeks to solve this problem by creating an integrated solution made up of OpSource running on top of a VCE Vblock.

What is exciting about this alliance is that OpSource is a "Certified Orchestration Software Provider" for the VCE Vblock platform. This means that our "OpSource Stack," made up of the software that provides the user interface (web and API) layer, integration layer (billing, accounting, user controls, etc.), and infrastructure layer (ability to control compute, network, memory and storage resources), have all been tested and certified by VCE to run on their Vblock. OpSource will manage this stack as a service just as we do for our White Label resellers.

VCE, OpSource and our ecosystem consulting, integration and infrastructure partners are working together to target service providers all over the world. This provides OpSource the ability to more efficiently scale our efforts to target service providers and differentiates us further in the market.
