Apparatus — Bringing Services to Cloud Computing
March 20, 2009 (Indianapolis, IN) — Use
of virtualization technologies allows a business to grow
or shrink their computing infrastructure as needs change,
bringing unprecedented flexibility and dynamic capabilities
to their IT environment. However, the ability to rapidly
change the numbers of servers within the computing cloud
requires that the application services residing on those
computing servers be properly provisioned and managed as
well. Because without the underlying system services and
application platforms in place you won't be able to fully
exploit the power of the cloud and what it offers.
Apparatus specializes in the management of the service and
application platform layers, providing technical expertise
for underlying system services such as:
| |
- UNIX, Windows, DNS, LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory
- Microsoft application platforms (SharePoint, Exchange,
Internet Information Server and .NET)
- Java application platforms (IBM WebSphere, JBoss, Oracle
Application Server, Apache/Tomcat)
- Databases (Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server) and other key
application infrastructure components

|
Since we opened our doors, our core business
has been the provision and management of services within
distributed computing environments and on the Internet. By
selecting strategic technology partners with infrastructure
and application platform products, Apparatus is uniquely
positioned to provide professionally managed services that
scale with both traditional and emerging cloud computing
environments.
