Hybrid IT projects for large enterprises

The cloud outfit named after a dream daemon, Morpheus Data, has released enhancements to its next-gen multi-cloud management platform (CMP) for hybrid IT projects at large enterprises and service providers.

The new software allows expanded OpenStack support, AWS CloudFormation automation and integration with Dell storage and cloud integration

Morpheus’ CMP bridges apparently simplifies hybrid IT management across clouds, assuring compliance, and providing developers resources on demand.

Morpheus Data VP of Business Development Brad Parks said that digital transformation happens at the intersection of DevOps and Cloud which is putting extreme pressure on IT.

“Morpheus addresses the cloud complexity crisis while at the same time unleashing developer productivity.”

He said that Morpheus gives hybrid IT organisations the ability to take advantage of open source agility and manage multi-cloud environments which include OpenStack without adding more complexity.

Morpheus supports application blueprints using native AWS CloudFormation in addition to existing support for HashiCorp Terraform, Microsoft ARM, and native Morpheus templates. With support for a full suite of IaC template languages, Morpheus lets IT operations teams to enforce governance and standardize provisioning processes while still letting DevOps teams increase agility with their toolchain of choice.

Enabling real-time storage provisioning for private clouds According to the 451 Research 2018 Voice of the Enterprise report, 47 percent of respondents expect to deploy cloud-based data protection in the next two years and 34% say the same for cloud archiving. To avoid storage silos, teams need to incorporate storage into cloud-first management and automation projects.

Morpheus worked with Dell EMC to integrate Isilon and ECS for file and object storage as well Avamar data protection into its multi-cloud management platform. Morpheus has also integrated Virtustream, the cloud services business of Dell Technologies, enabling customers to consolidate management of public, private, and managed cloud platforms.
