Versatile Chosen as New England's Cloud Center of Excellence and Unveils the Industry's First Integrated Solution Center

MARLBORO, MA--(Marketwire - Nov 27, 2012) - Versatile Communications, Inc., an accomplished consultant helping organizations solve business problems through technology integration, today announces it has been chosen to host Hewlett Packard's Cloud Center of Excellence (CCOE) and also announces its opening of the industry's first fully integrated Solutions Center.

The CCOE offers demonstrations of Hewlett Packard's (HP) CloudSystem platform which develops and manages services across private, public and hybrid clouds. There is only one other HP CCOE in all of New England. Being chosen as a host requires sponsorship from HP top executives and multiple nominations across their enterprise. It is based on business leaders who have demonstrated excellence in delivering HP's technology solutions to clients.

The CCOE contains HP ProLiant blades, storage, networking switches, service automation and converged infrastructure services. It allows Provisioning and Automation of IT resources at the click of a button. With the "self-service" portal, companies can work out a 'pay as you use model' that suits their organization. For companies looking for a quick cloud computing installation, the CCOE also offers a read-to-use, pre-integrated, out-of-the box solution.

"Most companies today are at different stages of trying to understand what the cloud means for their business and how to migrate their infrastructure into a cloud environment," explains John Barker, Versatile Communications CEO and Co-Founder. "With the CCOE, Versatile provides the leading edge capability for businesses to better understand the different environments for public, private and hybrid clouds and works with them to develop a cloud strategy customized to their company's individual goals."

The company is also unveiling the industry's first integrated Solution Center which includes a combined Training Center, Proving Ground Lab, Customization Center, and Logistics Area. This client-focused center had been designed specifically to provide IT managers with the knowledge and tools needed to make highly informed decisions as to the best technology and techniques to grow their company's infrastructure.

Classes on state-of-the-art technology are offered the Training Room. Ideas and plans are tested in the Proving Ground Lab which contains the new HP CCOE and other best-of-breed products for end-to-end computing from a myriad of well-known manufacturers. Tailored products are built in the Customization Center. The large Logistic Area allows for an even flow of raw materials and finished product.

In recognition of the HP CCOE achievement along with the unveiling of its new Solution Center, the company is holding a celebration at their Marlboro headquarters office on Tuesday, November 27^th. Marlboro's Mayor Arthur Vigeant, top HP executives, and other key Versatile partners will attend the event where Troy Brown -- Patriot's Hall of Famer and three time Super Bowl winner -- will be the keynote speaker.
