Each year, CRN honors the 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors in an effort to help solution providers navigate the growing cloud marketplace and identify the best solutions to support the IT channel. Winners are named across five major cloud categories including platforms and tools, infrastructure, storage, security and software, based on data and information gathered from both solution provider nominations and the CRN editorial team.

Caringo object storage software focuses on scalability, efficiency, flexibility, and automation. IT Channel partners can combine Caringo software with their choice of hardware and select the protection scheme that best suits their customer's price and performance requirements. This gives solutions providers the ability to offer cloud storage service solutions with the broadest range of SLAs while ensuring ease of management and massive scalability on any server or storage hardware and any drive type.

"The adoption of cloud computing solutions is showing no signs of slowing down as solution providers look to provide their clients with the scalability, flexibility and cost benefits necessary to compete in today's business environment," said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "Each vendor on this list was carefully selected based on its ability to help organizations capitalize on those opportunities." 

"The first place that a lot of organizations go for advice on a cloud storage service infrastructure is their channel partners, which is why we are honored to be on CRN's Coolest Cloud Vendors list," said Mark Goros, CEO of Caringo. "We are looking forward to what is already a great 2014 due in large part to providing the most efficient and flexible object storage software and unrivaled support to our channel partners."
