Platform Brings Big-Business Grid Rep to the Cloud
Enterprise-grade private cloud computing could take a big step forward with the introduction of Platform Computing’s new cloud management software, Platform ISF. The casual IT follower might never have heard of Platform, but for the better part of 20 years, the company has been proving the worth of its grid and cluster management solutions inside some of the world’s most demanding companies. Platform’s public customers include major banks like Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase, manufacturing giants like Pratt & Whitney and Airbus, and IT blue-chippers HP and AMD. If Platform is able to spur cloud adoption among large organizations and establish itself as a cloud computing leader, its reputation will play a vital role in the process.
