Executive Summary Platform9 Delivers The Next Generation Open Cloud Transformation
Platform9 enables enterprises to realize their hybrid/multi-cloud strategies by delivering, as a service, the leading open source cloud frameworks: OpenStack, Kubernetes and Fission. Platform9’s goal is to establish an open multi-cloud platform that is:
• Orchestrated by a single unifying control plane across all DC/clouds
• Managed through a single pane of glass
• Facilitated through open APIs
• Integrated with open application catalogs, and
• Deployed on all enterprise infrastructure elements (bare metal, Linux, VMware, OpenStack and public clouds)
The unique combination of a SaaS managed control plane delivered across all enterprise infrastructures with an open ecosystem (open source frameworks, open APIs and application catalogs) establishes a new cloud paradigm: the Open Cloud.
This new type of cloud platform includes the benefits of existing private and public clouds and transports enterprises to the next level of experience in terms of agility, flexibility and portability. Further, the SaaS delivery model enables the Open Cloud to function at a significantly reduced level of operational cost and complexity. Platform9 is at the forefront of leading the cloud computing industry to the Open Cloud solution.
