Lunacloud Deploys Cloudian® to Grow Business, Offer S3 Compatible Cloud Storage
Cloudian, the leader in S3 compatible cloud storage software, today announced that Lunacloud, a leading European pure-play cloud services provider, has selected Cloudian’s industry-leading Cloudian software to power its cloud storage service, marking Cloudian’s entry into the rapidly growing European cloud market.
London, United Kingdom, November 07, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Cloudian is ideal for enterprises and service providers looking to offer Amazon S3-compatible Storage as a Service (StaaS) and/or provide secondary storage systems for their cloud compute platforms, such as Citrix Cloud Platform, Apache CloudStack, or OpenStack. The company recently released the free Cloudian Community Edition, which will support up to 100 TB of useable storage and offer forum support, opening up the scalability, reliability and power of cloud object storage to anyone building an Amazon S3-compatible cloud, be it public, private or hybrid. The Community Edition can be downloaded from http://www.cloudian.com/get-started.html.
Lunacloud is backed by Claranet, one of Europe’s largest managed services providers, with more than 2,500 customers across Europe. Lunacloud is a progressive, pure play public cloud company that is focused on delivering reliable, elastic and low cost cloud infrastructure services (IaaS), on which companies can run their operating systems and applications or store data. Like Lunacloud’s services, Cloudian is built upon the idea that the cloud should be accessible to all companies via affordable, commodity hardware-based solutions. This gave Lunacloud a low-cost implementation while also allowing the company to take advantage of Cloudian’s othercompetitive differentiators, including its scalable object store and Amazon S3 compatibility.
“Not only does Cloudian share our same goal of bringing affordable, reliable and scalable cloud solutions to companies of all sizes, it also shares our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction,” said António Miguel Ferreira, Lunacloud Co-Founder and CEO. “The team was extremely responsive during our implementation and remains a true partner in working together to bring new cloud solutions to our growing joint customer base. We look forward to building superior solutions around Cloudian in the years to come.”
