How one company leverages resources to provide big performance with ‘mean and lean’ staffing | #DataStorage
by Betsy Amy-Vogt | Feb 23, 2016
With a history in hosting that goes back to the days before the cloud was a buzz, iland Internet Solutions was positioned early on to become a player in the cloud hosting services field. But rather than developing the underlying infrastructure themselves, iland made the decision to stay “mean and lean,” leveraging the technology of its partners Nimble, VMware and Cisco through APIs.
Justin Giardina, CTO of iland Internet Solutions, Inc., joined Jeff Frick and Stu Miniman, cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, at the Nimble Storage: The Power of Predictive Analytics event in San Francisco.
Big-name reliability, small company staffing
iland navigated the transition from traditional to cloud hosting successfully and is now a global company offering “secure cloud hosting with management, security and compliance built-in.”
While iland provides the overlying platform, its partners are responsible for the underlying infrastructure. Giardina gives one big benefit for this: reliability. The technology offered by iland’s high-level partners is tried and true, and iland can trust it to perform. Another benefit is lower staffing, allowing the company, which has datacenters around the world, to operate with a staff of only 60 people.
In and out migration
The discussion continued to migration issues and how iland is making it easy for companies on legacy apps to move not just into the cloud, but back out again. Unlike the Hotel California approach taken by competitor Amazon, iland allows migration both ways.
In 2007, iland’s customers’ attitude to the cloud was tentative, with a focus on development and testing. Now the conversation has no ambiguity: “It’s a discussion about when, not should I, shouldn’t I,” said Giardina.
