By Anil SharmaJamcracker (News - Alert), a cloud services brokerage enablement company, has released the Jamcracker Services Delivery Network (JSDN) 6.0.
The new version features a globalized platform with operational enhancements and new REST APIs to help businesses better manage portfolios across multiple geographies.
“JSDN 6.0 offers our customers the flexibility to set-up multiple marketplaces, each with a unique set of languages, currencies, time zones and date formats,” said Mahendra Soneji, vice president of Product Management at Jamcracker, in a statement.
Soneji said that this enables the catalog, stores and offers to be made available in multiple geographies. This not only decreases operational costs, but also increases the ROI for the customers and adds significant value to their cloud offerings.
Additionally, JSDN 6.0 provides international SMBs and enterprises with the toolset necessary to create, manage, and run cloud services with operational and financial efficiency in public, private or hybrid clouds. The CSB model is a critical enabler for delivering and managing cloud services with provisioning, billing, security, user administration and support framework.
Earlier this month, Jamcracker unveiled the results of the third annual report on cloud adoption and usage. The explosion of cloud services offerings over recent years has presented a tremendous market opportunity for solutions that simplify the complexity associated with delivering and consuming multiple cloud services from disparate providers.
The largest segment of cloud adoption continues to be Software-as-a-Service (SaaS (News
- Alert)), followed by Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), as organizations of all sizes are shifting from an “operation” focus to an “aggregate” IT delivery and consumption model.
Cloud adoption by small and medium enterprises is increasingly happening through CSB providers, such as telcos and traditional IT distribution channels. On the other hand, large enterprise and government IT cloud adoption is gaining traction, driving an interest in on-premise as well as hosted Internal CSB deployment models.
Additionally, Jamcracker observed collaboration and messaging applications accounted for nearly 50 percent of cloud sales, suggesting that organizations are consuming services that accommodate the bring your own device (BYOD) and mobile workforce trends.
