Infinite Group expands partnership with VMware

Now that is strike one for the "Professional Partner Program"!

“IGI achieved VAC status (VMware Authorized Consultant) in May 2007 by having a team of highly trained and certified VCP’s (VMware Certified Professionals),” said Michael Mereos, IGI’s Director of Practice Development. “Now that we are a VMware Enterprise VIP Reseller, we are authorized to resell VMware's full product line, including VMware Enterprise products. Besides adding an additional revenue source, this also ensures that we can bring the full suite of VMware products and services to our customers for a complete solution. In addition, as a VIP Enterprise Reseller, we work so closely with VMware’s sales team that we are actually considered an extension of the VMware sales force,” added Mereos. IGI is also identified as a resource partner on VMware’s website (www.vmware.com).

IGI and VMware help reduce server sprawl by consolidating customer servers, reduce power and cooling costs, streamline test and development operations, create complex multi-machine configurations in seconds rather than days, automate the software lifecycle and create disaster recovery and high availability solutions—all through virtualization. 86% of VMware’s customers are running VMware software in production environments to help optimize their IT infrastructure.

Virtualization: GlassHouse hopes to cash in with its IPO!

GlassHouse Technologies Inc. on Tuesday registered to raise as much as $100 million in an initial public offering that, despite the company's financial losses, could prove a hit with investors drawn to its focus on "virtualization" technology. The Framingham, Mass., company offers consulting services for companies that use virtualization software to improve the performance of corporate servers and cut costs in their data centers. GlassHouse also provides Internet-based data storage. "Software-as-a-service," or SaaS, companies and vendors of virtualization products have proved popular among investors in recent years as corporate customers seek alternatives to conventional packaged software.
