Cloud4Com: Building a Cloud
Cloud4Com establishes cloud computing service with support from Intel Cloud Builders and the Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series
Cloud4Com was founded in spring 2010 to deliver cloud computing solutions to medium-to-large-sized enterprises in the Czech Republic. Its central offering is its Virtual Data Center* service, an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) solution that provides customers with remote access tithe resources typically found in an enterprise data center on an on-demand basis. When developing the service, Cloud4Com became a member of the Open Data Center Alliance (ODCA) and used the market segment and technical insights this provided to ensure that the service was commercially-attractive and based on a sound technology platform. It deployed a Cisco Unified Computing System* powered by the Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series and storage technology from Hitachi Data Systems to provide a powerful, flexible, and easy-to-manage platform for its Virtual Data Center service.
