Cloudwick to Demo OpenStack(R) Private Cloud Service Flexibility and Agility Live in Booth


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Sep 29, 2015) - Strata + Hadoop World, Booth #430 - Cloudwick, the leading Big Data-as-a-Service provider to the Global 1000, announced today that it will be demonstrating Hadoop and Cassandra with Spark on the Cisco Metapod™ infrastructure platform, showcasing how the OpenStack®-based private cloud delivers the benefits of a public cloud experience behind the corporate firewall. Cloudwick will demonstrate the service flexibility and agility that Cisco Metapod™ provides and how enterprises can gain competitive advantage in their own data center.

At its booth (booth 430), Cloudwick will spin up Cloudera, Hortonworks and DataStax clusters in the Cisco Metapod™ environment, and demonstrate changes and updates, supporting evidence of its simplicity and accelerated time to provision and value for enterprises. Cloudwick One® services on Cisco Metapod™ enable IT to provide business with simplified and accelerated big data services that deliver data-driven competitive advantage.

Cisco Metapod™ delivers a public cloud experience, privately. Cisco takes care of what's "behind the curtain" to allow developers to build and operate amazing apps. Based on OpenStack®, Cisco Metapod™ provides customers with availability zones that are engineered and remotely operated 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from Cisco's secure operations center. With Metapod™, Cisco takes responsibility for running the cloud, allowing IT departments use the real-time hypervisor and dashboard to provide a world-class cloud platform for developers.

"As a preferred partner to Hortonworks, Cloudera, DataStax and Databricks, Cloudwick has more open source big data systems experience than any other service provider," said Mani Chhabra, founder and CEO of Cloudwick. "With Cisco and its Metapod solution, we are delivering the agility and flexibility of public cloud -- privately. This solution will help customers that need the value of the cloud and haven't yet been able to find a solution to meet their requirements. They'll derive maximum business value from their data without having to manage the underlying platform themselves."
