Autonomic Among the First Government Cloud Providers to Commit to Working with ARM Server Innovator to Improve Data Center and Server Efficiency
CARY, N.C., June 16, 2011 — Autonomic Resources, a U.S. Government-only Public and Private Cloud Provider, today announced it is among the first companies to be a member of the Calxeda Trailblazer initiative, an industry ecosystem of companies dedicated to improving server and data center efficiency.
Autonomic is focusing on delivering solutions that assist the GSA in its Sustainability Solutions. Autonomic is adopting technologies to assist Federal Agencies in complying with Executive Order 13514 which requires agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiencies, among other goals. Given its sustainability focus, it makes perfect sense for Autonomic to be among Calxeda's first Trailblazers.
Autonomic Resources President John Keese indicated the Calxeda technology holds great promise in assisting with Executive Order 13514. He stated: "When coupled with our ARC-P cloud technologies, Calxeda's technology will help solve issues around forward deployed data center needs that until now required significant logistics, cost and manpower to enable."
Trailblazer partners will work with Calxeda to accelerate adoption of hyper-efficient servers, creating a rich ecosystem that end users will benefit from by ultimately delivering full systems faster. Since its August 2010 launch, Calxeda has created significant industry interest in its ARM-based servers.
"We couldn't be more pleased to have Autonomic Resources as one of our very first Trailblazer partners," said Calxeda CEO Barry Evans. "Our federal government is taking a green leadership role by requiring its own government agencies to improve energy efficiency and Autonomic is a critical partner in that effort with its ARC-P cloud platform. Therefore Autonomic is a critical partner for Calxeda. Together we will disrupt the government agency industry – for the better – with hyper-efficient servers and cloud solutions."
As a Trailblazer, Calxeda will provide Autonomic with early access to hardware, operating system software, tools, applications and joint sales and marketing. Autonomic will also get first updates on valuable benchmarking and technical information.
