Ixonos marrieseZ Systems' World-Leading Content Management Solution With its own Red Hat Certified Cloud
HELSINKI, February 7, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Ixonos [http://www.ixonos.com ], a creative mobile solutions company and Finnish cloud
solution provider, has made a deal with Norwegian web content management (WCM) and
customer experience management (CXM) provider eZ Systems [http://ez.no ] to build a
flexible and reliable cloud solution. The Ixonos-enabled eZ Publish Cloud helps turn eZ's
award-winning open source web content management platform eZ Publish into a customised
cloud edition.
Ixonos launched an open and secure enterprise cloud solution called Ixonos Elastic
Cloud(TM) in May 2011. It is the first Red Hat [http://www.redhat.com ] certified cloud in
the Nordic countries, which means it is particularly well suited for the numerous
enterprise customers already running their applications in Red Hat Linux environments. "At
Ixonos, we are focused on providing continuous innovation in the development of our cloud
resources, which are based in our own state-of-the-art data centres", says Janne Luntta,
head of Cloud & Hosting Services at Ixonos.
Forming the basis of eZ Publish Cloud, Ixonos Elastic Cloud allows eZ customers to
benefit from guaranteed platform stability as well as a high degree of service and
support. Ixonos offers seamless migration from on-premise data centres to the cloud as
well as service levels and cloud resources that can be easily adjusted to customer needs.
By pre-packaging five different levels of cloud services, eZ allows its Publish Cloud
customers to enjoy hassle-free service instead of each of them having to configure
resource capacity and hosting separately, tasks which are often time-consuming and
arduous.
eZ customers also get a chance to enjoy various customisable cloud products Ixonos has
developed in-house: the white-label boutique app-store platform Ixonos Experience
Store(TM) and the City Online(TM) municipal e-government services will be made available
also via the eZ Market. "The new deal with eZ Systems, a world-leading provider of open
source content management solutions, means we can now offer our own cloud customers a
hefty, globally capable web content management platform developed by the number one open
source WCM provider," says Teppo Kuisma, head of Online Solutions at Ixonos. "I trust this
will attract Internet service vendors and various other companies who wish to build their
business models in the cloud," he adds.
Gabriele Viebach, Group CEO at eZ Systems, comments on the collaboration with Ixonos:
"We are glad to have gained as service-oriented a partner as Ixonos. They have many years
of experience in the areas of cloud and hosting services and software development.
Together, we are able to offer our customers a high degree of service and support."
Ixonos believes that building business on top of the cloud is a great opportunity for
companies operating in accordance with open source business models as well as for any
customer developing new services for global or domestic markets with tight time-to-market
demands. Ixonos offers to manage troublesome hosting issues flexibly, reliably and
cost-efficiently, enabling customer companies to concentrate on running their core
business, developing their services and serving their own customers better.
