Faction, a cloud provider offering hybrid, private and public cloud solutions, announces the launch of Faction Marketplace, a purchasing platform designed to connect existing customers and channel partners to cloud service and product suppliers.
Faction Marketplace acts as a resource for its partners and resellers to purchase complementary cloud services that enhance the overall functionality of their IT environments. Faction Marketplace hopes to drastically simplify the cloud customization process and match partners with ideal suppliers. The platform offers a variety of choices for managed services, software solutions and colocation services.
"Faction Marketplace is just another example of how we put our customers first," says Luke Norris, Chief Executive Officer of Faction. "At Faction we emphasize deep control coupled with a high degree of flexible fine-tunable cloud resource pools for end-users, and the Marketplace acts as a one-stop platform to connect the best suppliers to our customers - making cloud optimization simple."
"As a global IT solutions distributor, we've designed our managed services suite including Managed OS, Managed Firewall, Managed Security and Managed Backup to give our partners increased capabilities and the power of choice," states Tim FitzGerald, Vice President of Cloud Services for Avnet Technology Solutions. "True to our commitment of offering cutting edge resources for our partners, we've made these services available on the new Faction Marketplace – a convenient meet-up portal that increases options and flexibility for solution providers."
