(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Telecommunications provider ATT announced on Monday it has launched ATT Synaptic Compute as a Service with VMware vCloud Datacenter Service, its new enterprise-class private cloud service that combines its technologies with VMware.

Designed for enterprises, developers, and businesses, this new cloud capability is embedded directly into ATT’s network as the company expands its continually growing cloud infrastructure and offerings.

This enables ATT’s compute and storage services to be scaled, managed, routed and delivered to business customers, down to almost any fixed or mobile device, on demand, with enterprise-grade security and performance.

The service allows VMware’s more than 350,000 customers to extend their private cloud environments across and into ATT’s network-based cloud using ATT’s virtual private network. The benefits of a VPN include the flexibility and cost efficiencies of using private and public cloud systems interchangeably and strategically.

The service allows users to rapidly provision and scale compute resources and easily and flexibly shift workloads between their private clouds and ATT’s network-based cloud. It also supports bursting, data center extensions, disaster recovery, and mobile application development and deployment.

“Our new cloud offer with VMware can help customers simplify the way they orchestrate their cloud resources between private and public clouds, allowing them to have the best of both worlds,” said John Potter, VP of a service solutions at ATT Business Solutions.

This new version of ATT Synaptic Compute as a Service is available immediately in the US with global availability expected by the end of the year.

ATT has achieved certification according to VMware’s standards for its vCloud Datacenter Service program which was created to ensure globally consistent enterprise-class cloud computing infrastructure services.

This new service is complemented by a series of cloud offers announced by ATT in the last 90 days which includes ATT Unified Communications Services, ATT Cloud Architect, ATT Platform as a Service.

ATT’s portfolio of cloud services also includes ATT Synaptic Storage as a Service and ATT Synaptic Hosting.
