HyperGrid, the Enterprise Cloud-as-a-Service leader, announced the expansion of its partnerships, customer base and hypervisor support. HyperGrid also revealed its partnership with Westin Building Exchange (WBX), one of the leading colocation, hosting and telecommunications interconnection facilities in the United States as well as news about Tearfund, a UK-based Christian relief and development agency, that recently consolidated its IT infrastructure to a single private cloud platform with HyperCloud, ushering in a $1.3 million dollar savings for the agency. HyperCloud will be on display at VMworld 2017 showcasing HyperCloud’s support for VMware vSphere.

CloudWest Powered by HyperGrid

HyperGrid partner, WBX, provides neutral interconnection points to Asian, Canadian, European and American network service providers, carriers, and internet service providers. HyperCloud, the industry’s only, fully on-premises, “pay-as-you-use” Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform will help deploy WBX’s CloudWest offering, delivering a true unified cloud service to its customers.

The service empowers WBX to provide the resources developers need on-demand, while remaining in control and avoiding any interruption in innovation. With the underlying infrastructure managed by experts, IT can focus on what matters to the business applications and workloads, optimizing performance to accelerate revenue generating activities.

“Our digitally connected world is currently undergoing a massive sea-change of content, connectivity, capacity and consumption. In order to better address this transformation, the Westin Building Exchange (WBX) is partnering with HyperGrid to deploy our CloudWest service offering,” said Michael Boyle, Strategic Planning Director at WBX. “HyperGrid has been a real partner in this process helping us utilize the carrier neutral interconnection points to Asian, European and North American network service providers, carriers, and internet service providers that are moving workloads to the cloud.”

Tearfund Realizes Almost $1.3 Million in Savings

Tearfund was ready to solve several IT issues including slow processing speed, high electricity consumption and IT staff resources when it began its search for an on-premises, cloud-based solution. The company then found HyperGrid. The HyperCloud platform was able to reduce processing time from 12 hours to just 20 minutes and also delivered a $1.3 million dollar savings for the agency.

“As a charity, we often do not get the opportunity to adopt truly world-leading technology, but HyperGrid has given us that opportunity,” said Stuart Hall, Infrastructure Lead at Tearfund. “I have worked in the IT sector for 25 years and this has been the easiest, smoothest project that I have ever managed. We have had fantastic support from HyperGrid throughout the process from the reassurance and the rigorous testing that we completed in the pre-sales period, to first-class support throughout the project, HyperGrid has met absolutely every requirement we set and we couldn’t be happier with the solution.”
