SAN MATEO, Calif., Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Morpheus Data, LLC, developer of the industry's first and only database provisioning, management, backup, and monitoring platform for private, public, and hybrid clouds, today announced it has earned recognition on The Channel Company's CRN 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors of 2015. This annual list recognizes some of the most innovative cloud companies supporting the IT channel today. Morpheus was named among only 20 vendors in the Cloud Storage Category.

The 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors honor is presented to companies based on their approach to creating innovative products, services or partner programs that have helped channel partners transform into true solution providers, ultimately helping customers take advantage of the ease of use, flexibility, scalability, and savings that cloud computing offers. Morpheus is recognized for Morpheus Virtual Appliance, its database provisioning and management platform for hybrid clouds, along with BitCan, cloud based database and file backup and restore service for MySQL, MongoDB, Linux, Unix, and Windows servers.

"We are honored to be selected as one of CRN's Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors of 2015," said Ashish Mohindroo, General Manager, Morpheus. "Being recognized by a leading channel publication as a top vendor in this space, is further validation that Morpheus is successfully addressing the demanding enterprise scale business requirements for provisioning, management, backups, and monitoring of heterogeneous databases across public, private, and hybrid clouds."

Morpheus Virtual Appliance along with BitCan offer companies the ability to provision, manage, backup and restore highly scalable and reliable SQL, NoSQL, and In-Memory databases across public, private, and hybrid clouds. With its point and click provisioning, automated backups, and single management console channel partners can on-board and manage new customers with ease. Morpheus empowers channel partners with expansive opportunities to take advantage of the rapidly growing database-as-a-service and backup market with a channel program that has very high margins and incentives, sales and marketing support, and no fees.

"Companies are rapidly moving towards a hybrid cloud model, where workloads are shared across on-premise, private and public clouds. Gaining visibility, control, and management of these systems across multiple clouds is a significant challenge for these companies," said Jeff Drazan, Managing Partner, Bertram Capital and Morpheus Chairman. "Morpheus, with its unique next-generation cloud architecture, has the platform which is essential for provisioning, managing and monitoring databases and IT systems in hybrid clouds."

This year's 100 Coolest Cloud Computing honorees are identified across five major categories including platforms, infrastructure, storage, security, and software. This list is an effort to help solution providers navigate through the ambiguity of the cloud market to identify the vendors, products, and services that can help elevate their cloud services offerings. Companies were chosen based on data and information gathered from solution provider nominations along with input from the CRN editorial team.

"Widespread demand for cloud computing solutions is increasing across businesses of all shapes and sizes. As organizations become more willing to adopt cloud technology and services, experienced solution providers are in greater demand." said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "The 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list enables solution providers to engage with companies who are poised to help them capitalize on these opportunities."

Coverage of the100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors will be featured in the February 2015 issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com.
