Autonomic Resources Adds OpenStack, Zenoss, and Enomaly Solutions to Its Cloud Platform

Autonomic Resources, an informational technology and service integration firm that works with U.S. federal government, announced the availability of several new technologies under the Autonomic Resources Cloud-Platform or “ARC-P” stacks.

As part of the ARC-P, Autonomic Resources offers new technology and solutions from OpenStack, Zenoss and Enomaly.            

ARC-P is designed to offer Infrastructure as a Service or “IaaS” Public Cloud Services to customers of U.S. government with simplified computing power, storage, and networking infrastructure, company officials said.

The service can be acquired and utilized on-demand, all from FISMA certified data centers with standard multi-factor authentication access, according to company officials.                                  

ARC-P offers OpenStack, an open source cloud platform that features OpenStack Object Storage, a fully distributed object store, and plans to offer OpenStack Compute, a scalable compute provisioning engine.  

Zenoss solutions include Zenoss Core, a free open source IT operations monitoring product; and Zenoss Enterprise, a subscription-based dynamic service assurance product that provides an unprecedented level of monitoring functionality and extensibility to enterprise-class virtualized and cloud-based IT environments.

Enomaly’s Elastic Computing platform (ECP) allows Autonomic Resources to act as an IaaS cloud service provider, to leverage the power, flexibility and compelling economics of cloud computing.

Autonomic Resources is also offering Canonical’s UEC cloud platform for private cloud deployment by government customers, in order to promote open source standards within the cloud technologies, the company said. Canonical UEC is a part of Autonomic’s ARC-P-UEC platform.

Zenoss and Enomaly have been added to the Autonomic Resource’s MAS 70 GSA (News - Alert) schedules of product offerings to further allow governments customers to deploy these technologies within their own environments.

“Cloud computing technologies provide the interoperability and portability that so many organizations and federal agencies need to improve efficiencies and stay competitive,” Cole Crawford, Autonomic Resources chief technology officer, said.

“Autonomic Resources is pleased to offer leading cloud solutions from OpenStack, Zenoss, Enomaly and Canonical, and we are fully committed to providing a unified cloud framework with these technologies to customers in the federal space,” Crawford added.

Bill Karpovich, co-founder and CEO of Zenoss; and Reuven Cohen, founder and chief technologist of Enomaly on behalf of their companies, expressed their pleasure in integrating with the Autonomic Resources to support the open cloud standard for the government customers.

Jin Curry, OpenStack organizer and vice president at Rackspace, stated that government agencies can take advantage of open source cloud technologies.

“With the expertise of service providers like Autonomic Resources, organizations and government agencies can build private clouds on the same technology used by Rackspace, the second largest public cloud hosting provider,” he said.

Earlier in June Autonomic Resources announced the availability for federal customers of Kingston Digital's DataTraveler 5000 USB Flash drive, utilizing Secured by SPYRUS technology.

Simultaneously the company also announced the availability of two leading open source solutions, SugarCRM (News - Alert) and Jaspersoft, under the General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule.
