3. Cloud Opportunity for VARs, system
integrators and IT service providers
• Fast growing IaaS/public cloud
opportunity
$9bn right now
$24bn by 2016
• Strong customer lock-in
Service + Infrastructure
• High Margins and high valuations
Gross Margins ~60%-70%

16. Co-Operative Cloud Program
Overview: Technology Service Providers purchase Cloud
infrastructure from CloudFounders, hosted and managed in their data
center using a unique CO-OP Program designed for Cloud Distribution
Worldwide.
• Cloud Founders:
– Promotes your cloud capacity to clients around the world
– Guarantees utilization of a certain amount of the resources and the associated
cost throughout lease term
– Continues paying the specified monthly amount throughout the agreed term
or whenever you want to take over all the resources
• The Technology:
– Global Management Center allows for easy deployment, handling of back-end
logistics.
– Management of environment, assigning VM SKUs, as well as additional
Environment Clusters as needed.
Not only is CloudFrames vRun Reliable, it is also a high performance system.
The flash, used for storage acceleration is not coming from a standard low cost SSD but instead we are using the state-of-the-art FusionIO IoScale card. The FusionIO card is used to handle cache operations and in order to get the most out of this cache, CloudFrames vRun is offering de-duplication.
All this acceleration leads to a performance of more than 40.000 IOPS out of one standard server. With the CloudFrames vRun software, the IO Blender effect belongs to the past.
To top the storage, CloudFrames vRun is using Cloning and Thin Provisioning. That makes that the CloudFrames vRun storage layer is not only high performance but is also economic and flexible.
inside vRun appliance we give you isolated virtual networks, giving you complete control over all inbound and outbound network traffic. You can select IP address ranges, subnet association, and route table and network gateway configuration. You’re really in control.
