To support the expanding role of the network  in deploying cloud services, Force 3 announced today it has achieved the Cisco Cloud Builder designation within the Cisco Cloud Partner Program.
This designation recognizes Force 3's ability to sell and deploy Cisco's end to-end cloud solutions for their customers. As a Cisco designated Cloud Builder Partner, Force 3 has met the required competencies across all cloud infrastructure components (security, networking, compute, storage and virtualization solutions), cloud management applications and a formal cloud professional services practice.
"Virtualization is the foundation for cloud. Our Data Center Practice was built around virtualization, elastic computing and scale out storage. Having proven data center, networking and security solutions, moving into the cloud builder space is a natural progression for us," said Sudhir Verma, Vice President of Consulting Services and Project Management Office at Force 3. "We are very excited about the opportunities that are in front of us and the ability to help our customers meet their mission requirements with our cloud offerings."
