Cloud Servers now used by Lawson Software

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Lawson Software earlier today announce a number of services and products  for running its software in a private cloud environment.  This will all be run on Amazon’s public Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Its new ERP (enterprise resource planning) vendor (EC2) has developed grid-computing technology for distributing application workloads over clusters of servers.  It’s new cloud server software has a brand new drag-and-drop Cloud Console tool for managing it’s applications.

Lawson’s  new cloud console should help customers reduce staffing costs and be easy to use, said analyst Ray Wang, partner with Altimeter Group.  Their focus is more on private cloud servers rather than public cloud servers.  “These are state governments, health care organizations, people dealing with a lot of HR data. Granted it’s fairly secure in the [cloud] environment but they still have to answer to their constituents,” he said. “It’s probably not the cheapest thing in the long run, but it’s the right thing for their company.”

Terremark started construction of the third datacenter at its Network Access Point (NAP) of the Capital Region campus. Terremark will initially invest approximately $45 million to build out the facility, which datacenter will house its Enterprise Cloud, colocation, managed hosting, disaster recovery/COOP and secure information services.

“The success of our NAP of the Capital Region campus has surpassed our initial expectations, and we believe the expansion of our datacenter footprint there will serve as a key catalyst for the continued growth of our company,” said Manuel D. Medina, Terremark’s Chairman and CEO. “Our position as the leading cloud computing provider for Federal government agencies, along with the heightened drive for greater efficiency for IT systems within the U.S. government and the increase in IT spending trends among enterprises, has helped fuel our success in Virginia. These key market drivers combined with our proven ability to reliably provide public and private-sector customers with world-class IT infrastructure solutions from an ultra-secure datacenter campus continue to drive positive results for Terremark, and we expect this new facility to help us build on that success.”
