WESTFORD, MA and BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/12/12 -- RiverMeadow Software Inc., developer of the enCloud automated virtualization and cloud migration software platform, and Cloud Technology Partners™ Inc. (cloudTP™), the leader in transforming businesses with cloud solutions, today announced a strategic alliance that will dramatically ease and accelerate enterprises into-and-between clouds while keeping costs at a minimum.

The two companies already have a successful track record in working with global clients. Collaborating on a project at Korea Telecom, cloudTP and RiverMeadow successfully migrated over one thousand physical servers to the cloud in just three months. The combination of cloudTP's unique transformational service approach and the enCloud software platform's unmatched ability to migrate servers and live-workloads as-is drastically minimized the cost and complexity typically associated with large datacenter migration projects. The result was an accelerated time to production without any service interruption.

"Working with cloudTP aligns RiverMeadow with an industry leader in strategic cloud transformation and tactical execution. Through their strategic transformation consulting and application implementation services, they deliver incredible value and efficiencies to enterprise clients seeking to migrate to the cloud," said Mark Shirman, President of RiverMeadow. Shirman continued, "cloudTP's deep expertise in enterprise cloud transformation requirements makes them an ideal partner."

"enCloud will enable cloudTP to more easily and affordably migrate enterprise datacenters into public, private and hybrid clouds," said Chris Greendale, Founder and CEO, Cloud Technology Partners (cloudTP). Greendale added, "cloudTP's transformational services are enhanced by the enCloud platform's flexible cloud deployment capability which provides the enterprise with the agility required to optimize their cloud lifecycle strategies."
