There are numerous reasons organizations look to extend their data centers. More dynamic and flexible computing needs and increasing storage capabilities are just a couple. And while this can sometimes prove a challenge for organizations, our Intercloud solution has given customers the freedom to expand their data centers, without compromising security, established user policies or workload control.

To understand how Intercloud provides all of these benefits, understanding exactly what Intercloud is (and what makes it up) is key.

Intercloud is the only globally connected network of clouds capable of delivering secure cloud applications and infrastructure anywhere in the world. Most importantly, Intercloud provides the critical “Three Cs” that CXOs and CIOs desire when looking to expand their cloud offerings and capabilities:

  • Choice– CXOs and CIOs can choose cloud based on how they want it and desire to integrate it.
  • Compliance– Intercloud’s flexibility makes it easy to comply, locally and globally.
  • Control– Intercloud can be monitored and controlled across every service, from every location.

Recently, Cisco partner Peak 10 achieved the Cisco Cloud Provider Certification with a Cisco Powered Cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) designation. With this designation, Peak 10 is poised to play three pivotal roles within Intercloud. During our next #CiscoChat on August 27 at 2:00 p.m. EST, we’ll explore Intercloud, the three strategic elements that make it up and dive deeper into the three roles Peak 10 will play in Intercloud.

Guided by Cisco’s @CiscoPowered moderator channel, Peak 10’s Director of Strategic Alliances Reggie Harris and Cisco’s Business Development Manager Kunjal Trivedi will field questions and offer insight into Peak 10’s and Cisco’s partnership.

At this year’s CLUS event, Peak 10’s live, real-world use case demonstration with Intercloud was one of the gathering’s most buzz-generating experiences. Presenting “Are Hybrid IT Solutions in Your Future,” Peak 10, a recent recipient of the Cisco partner award for Cloud Provider of the Year: US, demonstrated when and why organizations should consider hybrid IT solutions.

Peak 10’s development of an enterprise-class application, aided by Cisco’s hybrid cloud embedded within the Intercloud fabric, gives organizations increased ability to combine workloads across their chosen public or private clouds.

Be sure to join us on the upcoming #CiscoChat on August 27 at 2:00 p.m. EST to learn more about Intercloud and to see how Peak 10 solutions add to its offerings.
