Enterprise Cloud Computing Pioneer Expands European Presence with New London Office
London—2 November 2011—Virtustream, Inc., a leading cloud solutions provider, today announced the opening of its new office in London – headquarters for the company’s U.K. operations. The new workspace, located in London’s financial district, accommodates the high demand for enterprise-class cloud services that Virtustream has seen in their dealings with some of Europe’s leading companies.
With London at the heart of digital commerce and business innovation throughout the UK and into Europe, Virtustream’s new office and expanded team will support the growth arising from the increasing interest in cloud solutions and services as a vehicle for business and technology transformation. Virtustream’s London office provides a European hub for Virtustream’s Cloud Advisory Services unit, which offers cloud analysis, hosting and migration strategies with practical virtualization services for enterprise IT landscapes.
“Virtustream is committed to helping clients transform their business use and performance of IT environments through virtualization and cloud computing, offering our xStream cloud platform, experience-backed cloud advisory services, and a footprint of secure global data centers to serve clients in any stage of the migration process,” said Karl Deacon, managing director, EMEA, Virtustream. “Our clients each have unique needs, so we work with each individual client to form a solid business case and migration plan that aligns with their core business objectives.”
Virtustream has seen significant customer momentum in the United Kingdom, winning cloud-based business with several notable clients in the past six months, including:
- British Transport Police: The country’s national railway police force worked with Virtustream to migrate from a physical IT environment to a virtual private cloud in order to boost disaster recovery in advance of the 2012 Olympics
- Martineau: A leading London-based law firm leveraged Advisor, Virtustream’s infrastructure modeling and analysis toolset, to map a cloud migration strategy and deploy on Virtustream’s enterprise cloud platform, xStream
Virtustream’s London office occupies unique space in the city’s historic “Square Mile” at 78-79 Leadenhall Street. Virtustream also currently owns and operates secure ISO27001-certified data centers in the U.K., to meet client hosting and data center utilization needs, supported by Virtustream’s Cloud Staging and Network Services unit.
As part of its global growth strategy, Virtustream recently opened three new offices in the United States and earlier this month announced a partnership with XYBASE to drive cloud computing adoption in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.
