Seattle's Skytap partners with Chicago on-demand vendor
Posted by Brier Dudley
Taking advantage of the focus this week on cloud computing at the Virtualization Conference in New York and GigaOm Structure 08 conference in San Francisco, Skytap today is announcing a partnership with Chicago-based CohesiveFT.
They're working together to distribute Cohesive's Elastic Servers to Skytap's Virtual Lab platform, adding to the collection of virtual machine images in Skytap's library.
The deal will "deliver a new class of solution where the ability to dynamically assemble and provision virtual machines is possible over the Web,'' CohesiveFT President Pat Kerpan said in the release.
(So do cloud computing companies make a splash when they announce things, or do they just drift along, morphing into different shapes and blending together?)
