TrackITOnline Introduces Ensim’s Unify Cloud Manager

Melbourne, Australia – July 27, 2011 – TrackITOnline Enterprise Software Distributor, and Ensim Corporation, the leading provider of solutions to manage, orchestrate, and automate private, public, and hybrid cloud infrastructure, announce the release of Ensim Unify Cloud Manager, which enables service providers to leverage all of the functionality of the leading carrier-grade Ensim Unify platform to empower resellers and organisations to efficiently and securely offer a wide variety of cloud services including desktop, server, and application.

“With Ensim’s mature provisioning solution we expected this to be the logical next step for Ensim, and they have exceeded our wishes with this release” says Phil Lancaster, Managing Director of TrackITOnline. “For us it means that we can offer our partners a comprehensive set of cloud solutions, all best of breed, which will enable them to differentiate themselves in this emerging market”.

Ensim Unify Cloud Manager is a complete, centralised platform that manages the creation, activation, configuration, and administration of cloud services. Unify Cloud Manager features multi-tenant enablement, automated provisioning, fine-grain privilege management, and delegated administration, along with robust resource and pool management for service providers, resellers, organisations and end-users in a single solution. The advanced virtualisation management technology pioneered by Ensim enables system administrators to increase service levels and operational efficiencies by automating repetitive provisioning and management tasks and empowering users with policy-based self-service capabilities that are compliant and secure.

“In addition to server virtualisation, private, public, and hybrid environments must be supported by service providers to remain competitive,” said David Wippich, CEO of Ensim. “With many components, tools, and variations available today, service providers need a single platform that enables them to offer a wide variety of industry leading products and services from vendors such as VMware™, Citrix™, Microsoft, and others. Ensim’s comprehensive suite of cloud management solutions allows integration of service provider and enterprise-scale management tools, via a centralised, role-based, easy to use, web management interface.”

Ensim Unify Cloud Manager includes the following capabilities:

Cloud Desktop Management - Provides streamlined multi-tenant configuration with granular role-based delegation while automating time consuming provisioning and management tasks, ensuring that end users and system administrators gain all of the benefits of hosted desktop virtualisation. Unify Cloud Manager supports all three desktop delivery mechanisms, including application streaming, session desktop, and virtual machine desktop.

Cloud Computing Management - Provides server and computing management technology that allows service providers to automate the provisioning and management of datacenter or cloud based computing environments to resellers and organisations from a mixed set of vendors and cloud platforms.

Cloud Applications Management - Enables service providers to deliver cloud-based applications and services to their resellers and customers in a bundled, feature-rich, low risk manner with a wide variety of connectors for leading cloud applications.

“SaaS based cloud applications are typically resold by service providers, but do not run in the service provider datacenter like other hosted applications,” said David Chang, director of technology at Ensim. “While these types of applications allow service providers to avoid expensive infrastructure and capital investment and lower the operational costs of on-premise infrastructure, they still need to be offered in a secure and effective way. Unify Cloud Manager enables the delivery of cloud applications and services in a cohesive, bundled, automated, and controlled manner in line with other offerings from the service provider.”
