Cloudcor Announces Spirent as a Premier Partner for UP 2010 Cloud Computing Conference

TORONTO, Oct. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloudcor today announced that Spirent Communications, a Gold partner at UP 2010 Cloud Computing Conference, will deliver a keynote address on cloud testing best practices and methodologies that help end-users in enterprises, as well as government agencies, streamline network operations and significantly mitigate their risk of migration to cloud environments.

"We are delighted to continue our world-class relationship with Spirent as our Gold partner for the UP 2010 conference," said Khazret Sapenov, UP 2010 chairman. "Spirent has led the way and set the benchmark for excellence in testing and validating real-world scenarios in the cloud across both virtual, physical and hybrid environments."

While cloud computing offers tremendous possibilities, it is critical to understand the limitations of this framework across key network attributes such as performance, availability, security and scalability (PASS). Real-world testing of a cloud computing environment is a key step toward putting any concerns in these areas to rest.  

"Cloudcor has been spearheading the effort to uncover opportunities and issues in the cloud space while providing world-class guidance around key cloud concerns," said Martin Vickery, marketing communications manager at Spirent. "We are committed to enabling IT professionals to leverage the benefits of cloud computing while overcoming challenges and ensuring a successful transition to this architecture."
