Just In Time Technologies enters into strategic alliance with VCE

Just In Time Technologies, a leading systems integrator in Sri Lanka specialising in software and IT solutions, announced that the company has formed a strategic alliance with the Virtual Computing Company (VCE), USA.

VCE excels in developing innovative platforms for cloud computing that dramatically reduces IT infrastructure costs; together, Just In Time Technologies and VCE will herald in a new era in cloud based computing in Sri Lanka.

Under the strategic alliance, Just In Time Technologies will license and purchase products and services from VCE which will be marketed in Sri Lanka where a growing cloud based market is emerging. The products will include Vblock and third-part software and components from VCE.

Vblock platform, VCE’s cutting edge product, delivers the industry’s first completely-integrated IT offering with end-to-end vendor accountability. VCE’s pre-packaged solutions are available through an extensive partner network, and cover horizontal applications, vertical industry offerings, and application development environments, allowing customers to focus on business innovation instead of integrating, validating and managing IT infrastructure.

As more and more organisations turn to cloud computing for their ever-expanding IT needs, Just In Time Technologies believes that VCE’s products are entering the Sri Lankan market at a right time. With VCE’s Vblock infrastructure platform, Just In Time Technologies will be able to offer comprehensive cloud infrastructure that will enhance efficiency and utilisation of IT resources.

“It will help organisations to maximise their existing IT resources since cloud-based computing delivers a faster, more efficient service at a lower costs than traditional data centre models,” said Just In Time Technologies Head of Marketing Kavinda Mahawedage.

In Sri Lanka today, many organisations invest considerably in developing sound IT infrastructure that serves as the very core of operational and management foundation. With the new cloud-based IT architecture from VCE, a whole new dimension opens up in managing IT resources in a cost efficient manner, Mahawedage reiterated.

Vblock’s outstanding capabilities as a single intelligent converged infrastructure system that combines storage and cloud computing with seamless support were showcased at the event.

“Vblock is a secure, robust and ultra-efficient platform that facilitates fast and cost-effective implementation of projects, maximising returns while ensuring efficient management,” added Mahawedage.

“With Vblock, you have access to automated, rapid virtual desktop and applications deployment and management , allowing users to access their desktops from any device, reducing IT costs and improving secure, centralised data management.”

VCE integrates the leading technologies from Cisco, EMC, VMWare and Intelto deliver complete and flexible solutions tailored to specific customer requirements that deliver compelling benefits such as deployment time reduced from months to weeks, reduction in hardware requirements by 60-70% through optimised configurations, single point of support for the complete system, etc., said Paul O’Connor – Director, Channels APJ.
