Private cloud provider ZeroStack Inc. has announced that it has added utility billing and container support to its software as a solution managed Private Cloud Platform.
The container support involves fully managed deployment of containers and their orchestration, storage, and networking infrastructure, with the company claiming it now makes it the most AWS-like on-premises cloud solution on the market by offering feature parity.
ZeroStack Cloud Platform is a hyperconverged appliance that combines servers, storage drives and networking equipment in a compact 2U chassis that comes with the startup’s custom version of OpenStack pre-installed.
“Since 2008, a generation of developers has grown accustomed to using the public cloud, and more specifically AWS, and they expect to see its feature set in all cloud solutions,” Ashton-Metzler Associates Principal Analyst Jim Metzler said in a statement sent to SiliconANGLE. “Today, ZeroStack is offering an on-premises cloud solution that delivers greater governance and control than public cloud, but with all of the features developers expect from the public cloud.”
Along with offering AWS workload migration, ZeroStack also offers an App Store, AWS backups, and SaaS-based feature updates, essentially offering the same features as offered by AWS in a private cloud solution.
“In the last several years, developers opted in droves to build their applications in public clouds – especially AWS – because of their simplicity, convenience and agility compared with privately run development environments,” ACG Research Principal Analyst, Cloud & Virtual System Infrastructures Paul Parker-Johnson said separately. “As the world moves toward multi-cloud transparency for applications, developers are looking for the same simplicity in their private environments, with native capabilities to integrate apps with AWS and other public clouds as requirements evolve. ZeroStack’s agile cloud development solution provides just that — an agile, on-premises development platform with multi-cloud workload mobility and ease of integration.”
ZeroStack Vice President of Marketing Steve Garrison claims that what the company’s now full suite offers is choice between the public cloud and them running their own private cloud without having to compromise of features.
