Envision
Technology Advisors, a leader in cloud and managed services,
virtualization, and business-focused technology consulting, has
announced the launch of their InFlight Cloud Platform.
"We heard from many organizations that they wanted the benefits of
cloud computing, but they also wanted a local option with people they
knew and trusted behind the solution," says Todd
Knapp, Envision's CEO. "InFlight gives our clients all the benefits of
The Cloud, provided by a team who knows them and their business and who
takes their success personally."
Partnering with Prov.net, a SSAE 16 / SOC 2 datacenter in Providence,
RI, Envision developed a cloud services platform that can provide high
availability, security (including HIPPA and PCI compliance), and
complete management and monitoring up to the operating system.
Additional services that are offered include cloud replication,
reporting, and even a fully managed private cloud infrastructure.
One of the first organizations to begin using InFlight was Virtual
DBS, Inc., a RI-based data analytics company. Envision's CTO, Jeff Wilhelm, explains the company's decision to leverage InFlight.
"Virtual DBS had initially been operating their own robust private
cloud," Jeff says, "They had some components that were coming up on
end-of-life which needed to be replaced, and they were looking for some
improvements in performance. After evaluating the costs of building and
managing a new environment on their own, they realized that InFlight
provided a less expensive alternative with much greater performance.
With InFlight, Virtual DBS can focus on end user support and business
needs, rather than managing infrastructure."
"Our experience has been nothing but positive," remarked Ken
Stewart, Virtual DBS' Chief Technology Officer. "We have experienced an
over 300% performance increase as well as a marked reduction in
administration tasks. I would highly recommend Envision's InFlight
platform."
