LineSider Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of network services virtualization , today announced a recently published Impact Report by independent analyst firm The 451 Group titled, “In Quest for Network Services Virtualization, LineSider Won’t Be Sidelined,” is available for download on the company’s web site. In the report, LineSider is recognized for its lucid vision and its sensible product architecture.
In the report, 451 analyst Rachel Chalmers states, “Cloud computing is virtualization plus automation and while many companies offer good policy-based provisioning and runtime automation at the service tier far fewer offer comparable functionality for network devices. Yet the network, along with storage tier, is the Achilles’ heel of infrastructure that aspires to cloudiness. By interpreting business policies so that they can be enforced and playing nicely with existing network and configuration management arrangements, LineSider offers a tempting prospect to overworked network administrators who are trying to support private and public clouds.”
