SINGAPORE – Media Outreach – 10 February 2021 – The benefits of automation in Managed
Services are well understood, but the diverse requirements of end-clients have
meant that manual operations were still the norm. The complexity in
implementing automation is increased with the hybrid workload (servers spread
across the Big-3 cloud providers Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform,
Microsoft Azure) and hence most providers were forced to rely on manual
operations.
This changes with InfraGuard.io which is
bringing in an era of Platform-backed Managed Services with in-built automation
and self-governance features. Singapore-based Cloud Comrade is one of the first
partners to adopt this new way of working.
InfraGuard’s CEO, Deepak Sharma said,
“InfraGuard is built by converging our decade-long experience in Cloud Managed
Services into a single product. Imagine a server management solution that works
seamlessly across all Cloud Providers & Data Centres and supports all
flavours of Windows & UNIX Operating Systems. One that brings central access
policies, automation and scalability right from Day 1 and is backed by
world-class support. Too good to be true? Well, it is a reality now. InfraGuard
is today being used by some of the world’s largest Public Cloud MSPs.”
Cloud Comrade, one
of the fastest-growing managed service providers (MSPs) in Southeast Asia, has
been the first partner to adopt InfraGuard as the platform of choice to deliver
automated Managed Services to all its clients.
Andy Waroma, Co-Managing Director &
Co-Founder of Cloud Comrade, commented, “Cloud Comrade is constantly enhancing
and expanding our product offerings and capabilities to deliver new value to
our customers. We are excited to partner InfraGuard to bring a unique automated
cloud server management solution to our customers. InfraGuard’s automated
features with stringent compliance and audit monitoring standards minimise
common maintenance and security pitfalls and enable us to create a uniform
server management environment that is highly scalable and secure.”
The core features
of InfraGuard reside in three major segments of Access Management, Patch
Management and SOP Automation with value add-ons such as Encrypted Key Vault,
Script Repository and Security Lockdown among others. InfraGuard also comes
with an Open API and ready integrations with many third-party software.
With InfraGuard,
apart from enhanced efficiency, Cloud Comrade can also create Centres of
Excellence for each service scope, ensuring that the end-clients are always
benefiting from industry-standard governance and operation frameworks.
