Atlantic Metro Recognized with Enterprise Partner and VMware vCloud Powered Status

Atlantic Metro (News - Alert) Communications, a managed infrastructure service provider delivering cloud hosting, managed hosting, internet access, Ethernet, data center colocation and fiber services, recently got recognized as an Enterprise level member of the VMware Service Provider Program (VSPP).

In addition to this, the company’s amCloud cloud service has achieved VMware vCloud Powered status too.

As an Enterprise-level partner and member of the VMware Service Provider Program (VSPP), Atlantic Metro can deliver comprehensive VMware solutions with enhanced responsiveness and reduced IT costs through increased consolidation, task automation and simplified management. The company’s VMware-based Cloud Hosting solutions serves the mission critical IT application needs of SMBs, startups, Enterprise, Software as a Service, and New Media customers.

"VMware is pleased to recognize Atlantic Metro with Enterprise partner and VMware vCloud Powered status. Achieving one of the highest partnership levels within the VMware Partner Network and vCloud Powered validation enables Atlantic Metro to differentiate itself and help them bring their enterprise-class cloud services to market in this competitive landscape," Jim Aluotto, director, Service Provider Business, Americas Region, VMware, said in a statement.

Atlantic Metro enables customers to virtualize and move their IT infrastructure into the cloud; which will eventually help them in enhancing agility, reducing capital and operating expenses, and also improving data security, network availability, application performance and environment scalability. The company's cloud services are underpinned by VMware's virtualization and cloud computing technology, VMware vSphere and VMware vCloud Director.

Customers of Atlantic Metro now have the ability to move workloads from their VMware vSphere-based virtualized or private cloud environment to the VMware vCloud Powered service and back again. This application portability is a key differentiator, says the company.

To achieve the recognition as an Enterprise level member of the VMware Service Provider Program, Atlantic Metro is said to have even taken the steps to ensure that both pre-sales and delivery technical engineers have met the level of expertise required to be an Enterprise-level partner.

"We are very proud of these achievements. Atlantic Metro is dedicated to providing our clients with expert levels of service and enabling business growth and success via our VMware vCloud Powered amCloud services," said Stephen Klenert (News - Alert), Chief Strategy Officer.
