Turbonomic announced a strategic extension of its Partner Program,
designed from the ground-up for the top, global partners of Microsoft
Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS). The new Cloud Specialization offers
partners a differentiated technology and approach to managing today's
workload diversity across multiple customer environments in a single
platform, enabling partners to deliver the industry's fastest and most
accurate, AI-powered cloud assessment plans and optimization.
The new Specialty builds upon Turbonomic's rapidly accelerating partnerships with Microsoft Azure and AWS (awarding Turbonomic with both AWS Cloud Migration and AWS Cloud Management Tools Competencies within a month of each other).
Partners
who complete specialization gain access to dedicated technical
resources to assist with first engagements, co-brandable customer
campaigns and service delivery templates. Additionally, the enablement
and training provide partners with the technical acumen to deliver new
services at any phase of customers' cloud journey. More than 30 partners
have been onboarded and enabled through the new Specialization.
"Managing
workloads in the cloud requires accurate planning and ongoing
optimization. Partners are excited to work with us because only
Turbonomic delivers consumption-based instance and Reserved Instance
(RI) selection to lead customers through their cloud journey, including
assessing, planning, migrating and optimizing workloads from on-premises
to public cloud," said Chris Sullivan, Senior Vice President, Global
Channel & Alliances at Turbonomic. "Partners can differentiate their
offerings by leveraging a single management platform that runs across
hybrid environments to deliver workload performance, policy adherence
and cost effectiveness to realize the full promise of cloud agility and
elasticity."
Turbonomic, a leader in the Forrester Wave: Cloud Cost Monitoring and Optimization, Q2 2018, maximizes cloud elasticity and agility through "SMART" workloads that self-manage, anywhere, in real-time. As more customers move workloads to Azure and AWS, workload automation software
uniquely assesses and plans cloud migrations faster and more accurately
than any solution in the market. Installed within 30 minutes, customers
lower their cloud costs by 30 percent while achieving 30 percent better
performance and enforcing business policy compliance.
Additionally,
Turbonomic continues expanding its global Partner & Alliances team
as part of its plan to more than double the organization by the end of
2018. The majority of hiring has been focused in Europe, attracting
talent from companies including Cisco, Dell EMC, Microsoft and VMware.
Turbonomic currently works with over 300 global alliance and channel
partners, including 10th Magnitude, Accenture, AHEAD, AWS, BMC,
Catapult, CDW, Cisco, DXC,
Kovarus, Microsoft, Presidio, Quisitive, RoundTower Technologies, RTP
