The rapid adoption of containers and "software defined" abstraction from hardware, have created renewed interest in server and virtualization technology. The Cool Vendors seek to guide I&O leaders on how to assess and expand server functionality beyond traditional OSS and hypervisors.

"A growing number of organizations need the processing power of high-performance computing but often lack the infrastructure or in-house expertise to implement their workflows. The Nimbix Cloud, powered by JARVICE, provides a valuable service for these companies to accomplish computer-aided engineering (CAE), fluid dynamics, structural analysis and many other compute-intensive workloads. We are humbled that Gartner has labeled Nimbix as a Cool Vendor," said Steve Hebert, Nimbix CEO.

Nimbix's industry-proven, High-Performance Computing (HPC) innovation (JARVICE) is ideal for companies seeking to run their data processing applications "as-a-Service" in domains such as engineering simulation, real-time photorealistic rendering, machine learning, and Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) for bioinformatics.

In addition, JARVICE also includes a Vault service that enable users to choose their specific requirements for storage, capacity, performance and cost, without sacrificing compatibility with existing applications and workflows. Additional key capabilities include:

• Expanded Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) capabilities for developers and ISVs to quickly and easily onboard new applications and workflows.
• Improved controls for enterprise security and accounting, including user "teams" and richer itemized billing.
• Private cloud - JARVICE can be licensed for use on premises or on any managed infrastructure.
