Intigua Launches AWS Management Module for Hybrid CloudsNEWTON, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- Intigua, the first company to virtualize the IT management stack for private and public clouds, today introduced the Intigua AWS Management Module. By extending the award-winning Intigua 2.0 automation platform to support Amazon Web Services (News - Alert), Intigua is making it easy for enterprises to ensure that VM instances in AWS adhere to the same corporate policies for SLAs, security and compliance as their private cloud VMs. "As more businesses adopt a hybrid cloud strategy, and more corporate users turn to Amazon Web Services for speed and simplicity, enterprise IT is faced with a huge problem: how to gain control over public cloud resources without impeding their users' progress and desire for self-service IT. Rogue servers that employees launch in AWS can expose their company to harmful data breaches, costly regulatory violations, missed SLAs, and more," said Shimon Hason, CEO of Intigua. "Now with the Intigua AWS Management Module, for the first time enterprises can allow line of business users to enjoy the speed, agility, elasticity and freedom of the public cloud, without sacrificing governance and control. This is critical to enabling effective, low-risk hybrid cloud environments." Intigua integrates with both Amazon EC2 and vSphere to auto-discover rogue instances and automatically configure them with the right management and security technologies, based on centralized policies. The Intigua AWS Management Module:
Intigua Virtual Containers, a key enabling technology within the Intigua 2.0 platform, is the first product that encapsulates critical management, security and compliance agents in protected "sandboxes" that are de-coupled from the underlying guest OS. This allows virtual agents to run on machines without the risk and overhead of physically installing them, as well as allowing all virtual agents (monitoring, security, etc.) to be monitored and orchestrated from a single unified portal. The Intigua AWS Management Module is available immediately.
