Cloud Technology Partners (CTP),
the premier cloud services and software company for enterprises moving
to cloud, today announced the launch of Managed Cloud Controls for
Amazon Web Services (AWS). Managed Cloud Controls represents a suite of
next-generation managed services that enables enterprises to effectively
operate their cloud environment, with all the security, compliance and
economic justification necessary for mass adoption of AWS.
As
part of this inaugural launch, CTP announced the general availability
of its first two offerings in this new category, Continuous Compliance
and Continuous Cost Control for AWS.
"Over
the past couple of years, enterprises have invested heavily to make the
transformative move to AWS," said Brian Ott, Vice President and Managed
Cloud Controls Practice Lead at Cloud Technology Partners. "Now that
enterprises are beginning to operate substantial workloads in the cloud,
IT leaders are faced with the challenge of supporting thousands of
applications and users, managing millions in new cloud spend and keeping
their environments secure at all times."
Managed
Cloud Controls ensures clients fully realize the cost savings, security
advantages and business agility that successful cloud adoption
delivers.
"CTP's
Managed Cloud Controls are critical for helping Convergex realize its
vision on AWS," said Ann Neidenbach, CIO of Convergex. "By ensuring both
compliance and cost control across our entire AWS environment,
Convergex is able to achieve the full promise of its investment in AWS."
Having
completed hundreds of enterprise cloud adoption engagements for
sophisticated and highly regulated companies, CTP has seen firsthand the
common pitfalls that stall cloud transformation projects and limit the
realization of the full benefits of AWS.
Two
critical blockers to large scale AWS adoption are regulatory compliance
and cost management. Most in-house IT teams lack the expertise required
to keep cloud environments continually in compliance amid today's
rapidly evolving regulatory environment, let alone maintain clear
visibility of their cloud spend.
With
Managed Cloud Controls, enterprise IT teams can offload both their
cloud compliance and cost management activities, freeing up valuable
time and resources for more strategic initiatives.
