AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - Nov 5, 2014) - Dell World -- Pertino, a company reinventing networking for the mobile and cloud era, today announced an alliance with Dell to integrate and resell its Cloud Network Engine service within the Dell Cloud Marketplace beginning next year. The Dell Cloud Marketplace is a vendor-agnostic, self-service portal that provides developers with the agility and functionality they expect from the cloud while allowing IT managers comprehensive security, visibility and control of the cloud services consumed by the IT organization. Pertino extends this capability by enabling customers to instantly build Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks that seamlessly connect instances and containers across any cloud, anywhere.

"By teaming with Pertino for the Dell Cloud Marketplace, Dell can help developers and IT managers simply and securely connect compute instances and containerized applications across any cloud, enabling them to reap the benefits of multi and hybrid cloud computing," said James Thomason, Dell Cloud Marketplace CTO, Dell. "With Pertino, we can now add 'connect' to the compare, consume and control capabilities that the Dell Cloud Marketplace offers customers."

Pertino for Dell Cloud Marketplace
Under terms of the agreement, Dell will offer the Pertino Cloud Network Engine service through the Dell Cloud Marketplace, leveraging a set of API integrations. Customers will be able to subscribe and provision Pertino cloud networks directly through the Dell Cloud Marketplace. Once subscribed, customers can use Pertino to build VPCs where and when they need them, as well as add or move instances and containers across VPCs. No network hardware or expertise is required. If secure connections are needed for remote users, servers or private clouds, customers can easily access the Pertino CloudScape console to setup a cloud VPN -- effectively creating a LAN experience across the Internet. The Pertino solution will be available in the Dell Cloud Marketplace next year.

"The combination of Dell Cloud Marketplace and Pertino solves the multi-cloud VPC conundrum and provides a one-stop solution for deploying and managing cloud services across any provider, anywhere," said Craig Elliott, Pertino co-founder and CEO. "We are excited to be collaborating with Dell and to have the Dell Cloud Marketplace be one of the first cloud marketplaces deployed under our BlueSky™ partner program."
