SpotCloud Pioneers a Cloud Clearinghouse
The Canadian leading IaaS cloud software provider Enomaly today launched SpotCloud beta, a brand new and pioneering cloud clearinghouse and marketplace operating on a sales model similar to Hotwire. The new site allows cloud providers to easily offer unused cloud capacity and computer inventory without chip away at their price standards and of course, get paid directly. Buyers in turn are able to easily find an ideal provider as divided by rate, performance etc.
“For service providers, SpotCloud enables the most important feature – the ability to make more money. Each service provider can define prices for the excess capacity offered through the service and adjust these based on time and utilization. For consumers, SpotCloud provides a secure central location to buy from a global pool of providers at highly competitive prices.”
This quote from Reuven Cohen, Enomaly founder and CTO along with a prediction by Gartner’s Daryl Plummer anticipating cloud service brokers will be the largest revenue growth opportunity by 2015 as well as the intermediary for 20% of all cloud services consumed seems to back yet another statement of Cohen, saying SpotCloud is a game changer.
Minimizing spending, getting the most value and scooping up as much revenue and profit as possible is on the top of the mind of every cloud capacity buyer and provider, as this fact may just hold the key to the future of SpotCloud. The numbers all seem to match up, but Enomaly’s new brainchild is still in beta, and just because it looks good on paper doesn’t mean it has a liable base for a long-term outlook.
