Bring your workloads to Iceland: Verne Global adds powerDIRECT+

Today Iceland-based co-hosting provider Verne Global announced powerDIRECT+, a reduced-cost compute environment engineered specifically for the next generation of power intensive computing. With the addition of powerDIRECT+, Verne Global has expanded its compute environments to equip CIOs with streamlined and cost-effective data center options, breaking the decades-old model of one-size-fits-all data center design.

Technology innovation drives rapid growth in computing and application management,” said Tate Cantrell, CTO of Verne Global. “To keep up, a shift in thinking is required. With applications that require varying compute, power and resiliency needs, forward thinking companies are fine tuning their application deployment strategies so that the data center resources match the service levels demanded by the users of the business applications. We believe our approach targets the diverse requirements of organizations today and into the future.”

Verne Global’s compute environments now include powerADVANCE, powerDIRECT+ and powerDIRECT, which serve today’s diverse applications, including mission critical applications, grid computing, HPC and other power-intensive applications. These environments create the opportunity to leverage optimized infrastructures designed to meet the specific availability and resiliency requirements of each application.

Taken together, Verne Global’s expanded compute environments change the way financial service organizations, research institutions, technology, and manufacturing enterprises manage and secure applications. Today’s applications have a variety of resource requirements, and with Verne Global’s diverse solutions, all application requirements can be secured from within a single-campus environment, allowing organizations to dramatically reduce data center costs while consolidating their computing infrastructure.
