ATLANTA, GA – OnApp, one of the fastest growing cloud platforms on the market, has completed testing and certification of NetDepot’s enterprise blades for OnApp’s cloud engine. OnApp approached NetDepot for a stable, high performance platform on which its customers can run their cloud. OnApp performed extensive testing of the NetDepot infrastructure to ensure top performance for the OnApp cloud engine. This partnership provides OnApp users a turnkey, enterprise level infrastructure for their cloud computing business.

“We are very pleased to be working with OnApp to host their software customers on our hardware,” said Global Net Access President, Jeff Hinkle. “To meet OnApp’s needs, we provide an enterprise-grade infrastructure that is second-to-none, simple and relatively inexpensive to deploy. The market has been crying out for an offering that will support a highly available computing platform on which companies can build out and scale fully virtualized cloud services, while remaining competitive from a price standpoint. Our enterprise-grade HP blades achieve this end and subsequently have been certified by OnApp to ensure optimal performance for its customers.”
