Canadian managed application and cloud hosting provider
Cartika Inc. (Cartika) has restructured its Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform to offer “enhanced value and flexibility”. The company, which was established in 2000, has headquarters in Toronto, Canada and provides services within Canada and the USA. It is a specialist in advanced clustering technologies and offers a range of infrastructure services. The restructuring of its IaaS platform will “better accommodate the real-world workloads of enterprise cloud users”.
Cartika’s platform restructuring is comprised of “carefully chosen storage performance, CPU power, memory, and bandwidth” - SATA, SAS, and SSD. The “three tiers” of the system ensure that enterprise cloud users “deploy and pay for the infrastructure most appropriate to their workload”. Cloud platforms often utilize pre-packaged cloud servers and require users to pay for more expensive services like SSD-based servers regardless of whether a customer requires such as feature. Cartika's SATA tier provides a solution for users that do not need servers with SSD drives. Conversely, Cartika offers SAS and SSD tiers for those who need additional resources.
“We've provided hosting for hundreds of enterprise clients over the last 15 years, and we've developed a finely honed sense of their infrastructure requirements,” explained the CEO of Cartika, Andrew Rouchotas. “The restructuring of Cartika's Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform further optimizes our cloud server portfolio so that clients can choose the right resource profile for their specific needs.”
