MIAMI, Jan. 7, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (Nasdaq:TMRK), a leading global provider of managed IT infrastructure services, today announced the latest upgrade to its Enterprise Cloud computing platform. The new features include Dynamic Capacity Management, which allows Enterprise Cloud customers to access on-demand computing capacity with greater flexibility than ever.
Dynamic Capacity Management provides a flexible "burst mode" for Enterprise Cloud-based computing environments, allowing clients to access additional computing power as needed. The feature, which can be enabled for processing and memory resources as required, provides real-time access to additional computing capacity, allowing clients to address transient spikes in usage in a flexible and cost-effective manner.
"With the enhancements we are introducing, The Enterprise Cloud has taken the next step in offering increased control of IT environments to our customers," said Randy Rowland, General Manager of Managed Hosting Services for Terremark. "The Enterprise Cloud's combination of highly scalable, dedicated cloud-based resources with a real-time burst mode gives the enterprise a more agile and economic IT engine than ever before."
"The flexibility of having our computing resources 'burst' at the speed of our business allows us to maximize the performance of our IT environment in a truly cost efficient way," said Brian Corrigan, CTO of Agora Games. "The Enterprise Cloud has proved to be a reliable and dynamic platform for our company, and we're excited about its future prospects as innovative upgrades like Dynamic Capacity Management are incorporated into the platform."
Terremark's Enterprise Cloud is powered by an enhanced version of Terremark's industry-leading Infinistructure(tm) computing platform and leverages the company's top-tier data centers and access to massive and diverse network connectivity. At the center of The Enterprise Cloud is an easy-to-use web application that allows customers to dynamically provision servers from a pre-allocated pool of dedicated computing resources. Servers can be configured and provisioned in minutes, grouped and organized according to role, and dynamically extended according to utilization. A variety of preconfigured server roles are available across Microsoft Windows, Linux and Sun Solaris operating systems. Plug-and-play bandwidth on demand is available from more than 160 global carriers. The portal also provides a full reporting interface that allows instant insight into resource utilization and application performance.
"We have remained on the cutting edge of the enterprise cloud computing market by continuing to offer services and features that meet the needs of our customers," said Manuel D. Medina, Chairman and CEO of Terremark. "The Enterprise Cloud's Dynamic Capacity Management provides our customers with the ultimate in flexible cloud computing, a platform that reacts to their business needs on a real-time basis."
