ActioNetCloud™ supports the deployment of an innovative, intelligent cloud service broker (allowing both a multi-tenant and multi-cloud offering), which is capable of orchestrating Commercial Cloud services for compute, network and storage resources in accordance with customer requirements and security parameters.

The customers for this implementation are Federal Organizations and their component Program Offices, as well as Commercial Customers, who may leverage this capability based to meet their Mission Objectives.

A recent ActioNetCloud™ Implementation was deployed, providing base compute capacity including hardware, monitoring and maintenance, for 200 GB of RAM and 12.5 TB of storage in secure cages at two geographically distributed datacenters to provide initial compute capacity for approximately 100 Virtual Machines (VMs) at each location. This solution also provides on-demand scalability for future growth.
