QualiSystems' award-winning CloudShell enables self-service, auto-provisioning and reclamation, and continuous integration over complex environments including physical, virtual and public cloud infrastructure. CloudShell allows IT to deliver agile infrastructure to speed provisioning of converged infrastructure and data center reference architectures, support DevOps processes, and build continuous network certification cycles for SDN and NFV.
A key driver in the growth of QualiSystems has been the overall push for cloud adoption. Businesses are seeing the benefits of moving beyond virtualization and creating self-service access to IT infrastructure environments. Likewise, IT organizations recognize the need for orchestration that goes beyond virtualization to address all their diverse infrastructures. The funding reflects not only QualiSystems' commitment to meeting this need, but also growing recognition of QualiSystems' leadership as seen by partnerships with industry leaders such as Brocade, Cisco, EMC, Ixia Communications and Mellanox Technologies.
"As organizations evolve their IT and network infrastructure to software-defined and cloud models, achieving rapid time-to-value is a key objective," said Lior Koriat, CEO at QualiSystems. "Securing this funding will allow us to continue to develop our platform to meet the needs of our customers, and to leverage go-to market opportunities afforded by our strategic technology and channel partnerships. We anticipate continuing our growth and raising the industry standard."
