  • (1888PressRelease) April 13, 2011 - Bluelock, an experienced provider of Virtual Datacenters hosted in the public cloud, today announces it was named one of the Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors by Everything Channel's CRN. The comprehensive list highlights the most innovative cloud vendors and solutions for the channel - including storage cloud offerings, security cloud offerings, cloud apps, cloud infrastructure and cloud platforms to assist solution providers in navigating the cloud phenomena successfully.

    "This year's Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list is based on a cloud vendor's approach to creating an innovative product, or an innovative approach to supporting solution providers in the IT channel," said Kelley Damore, vice president and editorial director, CRN. "Specifically, these Cloud vendors help resellers transform themselves into true service providers and help organizations and enterprises take advantage of the ease, flexibility, scalability, elasticity and cost savings that leveraging cloud computing has to offer."

    "We are honored to be recognized by CRN as one of the world's coolest and most innovative cloud vendors," said Christopher Clapp, CEO, Bluelock. "We believe our selection not only validates the dynamic combination of the industry-leading VMware platform and Bluelock's secure and reliable Virtual Datacenters, but also our vast experience in enabling internal IT to quickly respond to heightened requests and demands."

    As a VMware vCloud Datacenter Services certified provider, Bluelock's public cloud is an enterprise-class service delivering consistent and auditable security and performance features including layer 2 isolation, role-based access control and LDAP integration in a SAS-70 Type II datacenter. Bluelock's use of the same VMware technology used by enterprise IT provides a common management and security model that enables application portability across internal data centers and all VMware vCloud Datacenter Services.
