Ten business cooperation in counting cloud computing

Many companies are working together to innovate and absorb cloud computing infrastructure around cloud computing products. Many large companies work together to provide cloud solutions. Both Google and VMware, as well as Microsoft and HP, are partnering to integrate cloud computing products. As for deciding which company to cooperate with, this is the solution provider's own business.

in order to prove that in the cloud computing product journey, few vendors will single-handedly, here we listed 10 vendors cooperation events for reference.


　　


Google and VMware


　　


Google is committed to the enterprise itself. To achieve this goal, the search giant, now the cloud giant, has worked with VMware to develop a Java application that allows developers to run on different cloud platforms. At the GOOGLEI/O conference in San Francisco last week, VMware's president and CEO unveiled the partnership, pointing out that collaboration is focused on VMware's Java programming model Spring Framework. As part of the collaboration, Spring Source's tool suite and a new Fast application platform tool called Spring Roo have been embedded in Google's Webtoolkit. With the virtualization boss WMware cooperation, Google has shown us that cloud computing products is a serious thing, and the major manufacturers to work together is to go to the road to success.


　　


Microsoft and HP


　　


recalled that in January, Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard launched a new technology stack around the data center, with two companies planning to invest $250 million in cloud computing products within three years. The two technology giants, however, did not disclose the details of the collaboration, but hinted at "dynamic it", such as the public cloud and private cloud, which involved Microsoft's products, such as Exchange Server and Hyper-V and HP's portfolio, including servers, storage and network devices, The specific listing and product details are not clearly stated. This collaboration showcases the "new infrastructure-to-application (infrastructure-to-application) model", which will bring a new cloud factory to the channel, and the two giants will provide a dedicated channel sales team for the project.


　　


CISCO,EMC and VMware


　　


last year, Cisco, EMC and VMware announced their creation of a virtualized computing environment (VCM) alliance and a Vblock infrastructure suite-a pre-configured, predictive storage solution series based on EMC, Cisco and VMware, The program is focused on promoting cloud computing products and virtualization deployments. This triple combines storage, server, network, and virtualization resources into a single product.


　　


Moreover, the three manufacturers said that the Vblock kit would be provided through system integrators, service providers, value-added suppliers and independent software developers providing services, and would support channel provisioning.


　　


Cisco,vmware and NetApp


　　


Cisco says it focuses on the unified Computing System (UCS) virtualization and cloud strategy, not exclusively about EMC. Cisco integrates NetApp and VMware products and introduces a new design architecture for sharing data center resources in virtualized Enterprise cloud computing products environments. The trio announced in January a secure design architecture for the lower-end of a multi-tenant environment that primarily provides the security of separate IT resources and applications for different customers, business units, or departments sharing the same infrastructure in a cloud environment. The three consortium of Cisco, NetApp, and VMware will also collaborate on providing predictive testing and validating design architecture support, primarily to help organizations build a unified, virtualized infrastructure.


　　


salesforces.com and VMware


　　


After providing clues to a mysterious website, Salesforce.com and VMware kicked off a new partnership in April, with two companies bringing Java application development to the cloud, and so the Vmforce Web site was born. In the process of cooperation, two giants plan to jointly sell and support the new Vmforce Enterprise Java cloud. This consolidation allows Java developers to use the existing VMware Spring Source tool to develop Java applications for the Salesforce.com cloud as before. The two companies claim that Java developers can love the way they used to develop applications on the spring source platform, Only now you can migrate applications from the Java server to the Force.com cloud, where Java apps can define and access data stored in the cloud in a drag-and-drop manner.


　　


Microsoft and NetApp


　　


last year, Microsoft and NetApp signed a three-year agreement to integrate NetApp storage with Microsoft applications and Hyper-V technology. This protocol enables solution vendors to better consolidate storage, virtualization, and cloud environments. This protocol covers the virtualization infrastructure based on Microsoft Windows Server 2008r2, Microsoft's Hyper-V server2008r2, Microsoft System for virtual and physical infrastructure management Center and NetApp Storage systems. The two companies also plan to collaborate on storage and data management solutions for Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, and SQL Server.


　　


EMC and Service Providers


　　


in EMC World in May, EMC's CEO Joe Tucci highly appraised EMC's Atom Cloud Platform partnership, working with service providers and ISVs to promote the application of private cloud applications in the enterprise. Service providers such as at& T,peer1,unisys and even more vendors are using the Atom Cloud and EMC's RSA Data Loss Prevention Suite to help CIOs expand their private cloud and add security to cloud applications.


　　


CA and NetApp


　　


February, CAS signed an agreement with NetApp to collaborate on the management of public and private clouds. According to the two companies, integrated solutions can help businesses and service providers improve business agility and reduce costs through CA virtualization, automation and service assurance offerings, and NetApp storage management solutions. The partnership, which has been around for years in two companies, will integrate CA Spectrun Don Manager and NetApp provisioning manager to enable customers to automate end-to-end cloud infrastructure, The CA spectrun Service assurance and Net APP Sanscreen Suite will also be consolidated to extend the business service model of the CA to storage, as well as to consolidate CA Spectrum Infrastructure Manager, Caehealth configured Manager and NetApp error and performance management products to improve proactive performance monitoring through real-time analysis, performance dashboards, and reporting.


　　


Dell and Joyent and other vendors


　　


Dell wants to launch a cloud-computing storm that is working with many other vendors to provide cloud computing products for businesses. Dell says it is building cloud products that feature hardware that has a test and cloud solution stack, and it provides software and services to simplify enterprise deployment and cloud environment management. The first is the cloud platform for Dell's Web applications, where immediate dedicated PAAs solutions are the result of joyent with cloud software vendors.


　　


at the same time, Dell is working with independent software developers Aster Data, canonical and Greenplum, Asterdata mainly provide web analytics, canonical provide open source IaaS private cloud, Greenplum is a self-service data warehousing provider.


　　


Finally, Dell will continue to work with Microsoft, and Microsoft's collaboration with Dell will combine to provide a Dell-serviced Windows Azure platform, while Microsoft will invest in Dell's hardware infrastructure for the azure infrastructure.





CA and Cisco


　　


Cisco seems to be working with all the vendors to solidify its position in the cloud ecosystem. This month, on Caworld, CAS and Cisco provided several new management tools to improve cloud and virtualized deployments, further expanding their partnerships.


　　


Cisco will also consolidate the CA's system management software and Cisco's Unified Computing Systems (UCS), which means Cisco technology will be managed by the CA's management interface. For example.  CA Spectrum Don Manager, Caehealth configured Manager, and CA Spectrum infrastructure Manager will work in conjunction with UCS.
