Ventraq Launches CloudBank™ for Secure Cloud-Based "Up Peak" Processing and Storage
June 2, 2009 -- Ventraq - a leading provider of event data transformation and business insight solutions for service providers and enterprise environments - today announced availability of its CloudBank™ data management solution. Leveraging the security and highly available processing power of cloud-based computing, solution providers can now easily scale up the collection and processing of real-time event data flow during peak traffic periods without the typical investment of often idle server "farms."
In addition, service providers can use CloudBank to easily and securely store successive iterations of business rules and network configurations for later retrieval. This security assurance allows service providers to quickly restore past settings in the event of irregularities or disruptions within the revenue stream. CloudBank also provides a secure "sandbox" for executing numerous test scenarios for more efficient event data stream processing.
Say Goodbye to Over/Under Server Provisioning CloudBank from Ventraq takes advantage of the new availability of reliable cloud-based computing. This distributed approach allows for flexible scaling thanks to sophisticated middleware solutions that adjust processing power across multiple, remote servers to match real-time processing needs.
"With our CloudBank platform, the cost to service providers for event data processing will no longer be directly affected by estimated fluctuating loads," said John Loughlin, executive vice president and general manager of mediation for Ventraq. "They will now have exactly how much processing power they require at any time without incurring the cost of additional hardware and associated licensing."
Partnering with Carpathia Hosting In support of the CloudBank solution, Ventraq has teamed with Carpathia Hosting, a leading provider of enterprise managed hosting services supporting a worldwide customer base including government agencies, large enterprises and small-to-medium businesses.
CloudBank from Ventraq leverages Carpathia Hosting's AlwaysOn/InstantOn™ solution to deliver a managed infrastructure with cloud computing technology in the same hosted environment. Ventraq has seamlessly blended these two server environments by using Carpathia Hosting's Cloud Orchestration™.
"Carpathia Hosting and Ventraq engineering teams collaborated on a solution that allows each tier of the Ventraq architecture to take advantage of burstable resources as needed to meet customer demand," said Jon Greaves, Chief Technology Officer at Carpathia Hosting. "The result is maximum flexibility for Ventraq to use the best technologies to deliver value to their customers."
