BOXBOROUGH, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Egenera, a leader in converged infrastructure and cloud management, today announced it has been named to CRN’s 2013 Virtualization 50 list, an annual listing highlighting the companies with the most innovative virtualization and cloud solutions.
Selected by CRN editors, the 2013 CRN Virtualization 50 recognizes the vendors that are delivering innovative solutions and addressing the emerging market needs of the channel. The list is designed to help solution providers identify and evaluate virtualization and cloud products and programs that help solution providers grow their businesses.
The Egenera Cloud Suite allows organizations to turn any infrastructure, both virtual and physical, into reliable, scalable and elastic cloud resources. The software greatly reduces IT complexity and makes it easy to design, deploy, manage and protect services running in a hybrid cloud environment.
“Solution providers have plenty of options when it comes to virtualization technology. However, understanding the diversity of vendors and their solution nuances can be incredibly daunting,” said Robert Faletra, CEO, UBM Tech Channel. “CRN’s annual list aims to cut down the noise and highlight the most innovative technology vendors that are not only delivering powerful virtualization technology, but also helping VARs capitalize on the market opportunity for such solutions.”
“There’s no question that the cloud is reshaping the channel,” said Chris Cleary, vice president of channel sales at Egenera. “Egenera is changing how services are delivered in the cloud while helping customers, partners and service providers deliver ease of use, openness, choice and resiliency in their hybrid cloud solutions. We are proud to be a part of the Virtualization 50 list among an impressive list of companies.”
The 2013 Virtualization 50 list is featured in the May issue of CRN Magazine and will be featured online at www.crn.com.
