Redwood City, Calif. – June 2, 2011 – Abiquo, the leading Enterprise Cloud Management software vendor, today announced that it won the Best Partner Solution for Virtual Datacenters at the 2011 Citrix Synergy™ show, held May 24 – 27 in San Francisco. Citrix announced the award at the conference attended by 5000 IT professionals and broadcast to a worldwide audience over the web.
A panel of judges, including executives from Citrix and IDG’s Computerworld, selected Abiquo based on nominations, on-site product demos and input from attendee voting. With Abiquo, whose Enterprise and Community editions have been certified as Citrix Ready® since November 2010, organizations can manage a globally deployed computing infrastructure, comprising unlimited physical and Cloud resources including private, public and hybrid Clouds through a “single pane of glass.” Abiquo’s solution leads the market with unique features like support for all six major hypervisors (including Citrix XenServer®), the ability to convert virtual machines from one hypervisor to another in a single drag-and-drop operation, and comprehensive business policy, to ensure corporate goals such as utilization and energy saving, as well as security, compliance and governance are consistently met.
“Virtualized datacenters are pivotal for Citrix customers, and they’re anxious to get results as soon as possible. The Citrix Best of Synergy award in the Virtualized Datacenter category recognizes the solution that best uses the virtualized datacenter to deliver the new IT-as-a-Service model. This model helps Citrix customers and system integrators accelerate deployments and see the benefits of new Citrix technologies. Abiquo’s ability to not only combine global resources (local, remote and hosted) across a broad range of hypervisors, but to manage the unlimited complexity through a single pane of glass, made Abiquo a fitting winner for the Best of Synergy award,” said Sunil Potti, vice president of product marketing and product management, networking and Cloud product group at Citrix.
