Vyatta Improves Amazon Cloud Networking for Z Gallerie
Vyatta Network OS Enables Improved Collaboration for Z Gallerie Developers with Scalable VPN Functionality
BELMONT, Calif., Dec. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Vyatta, the leader in software-based networking for physical, virtual and cloud infrastructures, today announced that Vyatta Network OS has been selected by Z Gallerie, a leading home decor and furniture retailer, to deliver enhanced security and networking within its Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environment.
Z Gallerie, which was looking to leverage Amazon VPC as a test bed for deployment of eCommerce sites, required a scalable VPN solution to securely connect remote developers around the world. Vyatta enabled Z Gallerie's administrators to scale IPsec and SSL-based VPNs as needed, resulting in improved collaboration among the company's offshore and on-shore developers.
"In moving to the Amazon cloud, we wanted to create a secure test environment for our engineers to connect to, but not change any on-site equipment," said Howard Kolodny, Vice President of IT at Z Gallerie.
"Vyatta brought improved networking and security to our cloud, enabling our team to cut the time needed to push code to the stage environment from 6 or 7 hours to less than an hour," said Balaji Thirumeninathan, Manager of Application Development at Z Gallerie.
Vyatta Network OS for Amazon Cloud enables companies, such as Z Gallerie, to benefit from customer controlled advanced networking functionality in the Amazon cloud that delivers the flexibility to address their network topology requirements. Among the benefits of Vyatta are its scalable VPN, Layer 2 cloud bridging, VPC to VPC VPN tunneling and more.
"When companies like Z Gallerie look to leverage the Amazon cloud, they often find a need for granular network control, beyond the available resources," said Tom McCafferty, Vice President of Marketing at Vyatta. "By deploying Vyatta Network OS within the VPC environment, Amazon cloud customers can control both ends of the VPN tunnel and create their own meshed topologies between VPCs and remote datacenters, regardless of location or existing network configuration."
In addition to improving the productivity of developers, Vyatta is also significantly reducing Z Gallerie's hardware footprint by eliminating their need for physical networking equipment.
"It's a goal of mine that we never have to buy a server again and it's something we are getting close to realizing," said Kolodny. "By deploying Vyatta in the cloud, we can provision a server in under an hour, which is huge for us."
