Russia's Caravan Aero Selects Flexiant to Deploy Virtual Data Center Capabilities

Caravan Aero, the subsidiary of Caravan Telecom, a datacenter provider in Moscow, has selected Flexiant to provide Virtual Data-Center (VDC) capabilities on-demand targeted towards the SMB set of customers.

Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator delivers the flexibility to meet Caravan Aero's requirements to deliver self-service VDC to its SMB customers as well as managed services for its large enterprise customers. Caravan Aero Cloud VDC will reduce operating costs for its customers by at least 25%.

Already an Odin Virtuozzo customer, Caravan Aero evaluated Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator extensively prior to selecting the cloud management technology. Stanislav Drugalev, General Manager at Caravan Aero said, "Prior to launching our cloud services, we undertook extensive testing to ensure Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator would allow us to provide the range of virtual infrastructure offers to our customers."

Caravan Aero was impressed with Flexiant Cloud Orchestrators breadth of functionality including the ability to manage two datacenter locations easily, multi-hypervisor support so Caravan Aero could go live on both Virtuozzo and KVM, and localization so the platform could be localized for the Russian language and currency.

Stanislav Drugalev said, "Flexiant gives us the ability to support a multi-pronged business approach delivering a ranged of self-service and managed services all through the same control panel."

George Knox, CEO, Flexiant said, "By selecting Flexiant with Odin, Caravan Aero has a complete solution to launch new cloud services, open new lines of revenue with existing customers and attract new ones. We give our service provider customers the technology needed to deliver the cloud in a way that extends beyond technology to support business growth."

"Virtuozzo leads the industry in container virtualization and is very well-suited for delivering infrastructure services on-demand," said Alex Danyluk, Vice President, Partner Ecosystem and Alliances, Odin. "We are pleased to see Caravan Aero evolve their service offerings using their existing investments in Odin technology and that Flexiant is helping to enable this."
