Vyatta Network OS Secures DaaS, IaaS Cloud for Integral Networks

BELMONT, Calif., Aug. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Vyatta, the leader in software-based networking for physical, virtual and cloud infrastructures, today announced that Vyatta Network OS has been selected to secure the Desktop as a Service (DaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud offerings for Integral Networks, an established provider of technology solutions, infrastructure management and value-added technical services.

"One of the goals of our cloud build-out was to attain a 100 percent virtual environment," said Bryan Badger, president of Integral Networks. "By deploying Vyatta, Integral was able to virtualize networking and security, effectively delivering those as part of our cloud service offering."

The Vyatta Network OS delivers a completely virtual network operating system for Integral Networks to offer managed firewall and VPN services in both VMware and XenServer environments. Using Vyatta virtual machines ensures that Integral Networks can offer granular control and complete isolation of customer resources, as well as secure remote access for managing cloud hosted data externally.

Integral Networks set out to eliminate expensive, unnecessary hardware by moving to an entirely virtualized environment. After electing to replace its existing Cisco physical environment, Integral Networks standardized on Vyatta virtual machines, which provided all of the security and connectivity required while simultaneously consolidating its datacenter footprint.

"Migrating applications from physical datacenters and branch offices to the cloud doesn't mean that businesses have to abandon security policies and compliance," said Tom McCafferty, vice president of marketing at Vyatta. "Whether it's an enterprise or hosting provider, such as Integral Networks, Vyatta is breaking the hardware-centric networking model and delivering complex networking and security architectures as software optimized for virtual environments."
