GoGrid: Multiple 1-Button Deploy Solutions to Harness the Power of Big Data

GoGrid enables companies to evaluate and run multiple, on-demand Big Data solutions quickly, simply, reliably, securely, and cost-effectively. The firm is committed to delivering purpose-built Big Data solutions and services for the management and integration of open source, commercial, and proprietary technologies across a single cloud, multiple clouds, on-premise, or any combination in between. GoGrid calls this concept Open Data Services (ODS).With their unique orchestration engine, GoGrid is able to deliver what they call ‘1-Button Deploys™’ of partner solutions. This accomplishment has resulted in several case studies, including one that involves a popular Hadoop distribution from Hortonworks. GoGrid was able to facilitate the installation of Hadoop services and technologies at the touch of a button, which was hugely beneficial for endusers who were interested in using the distribution. And being able to deploy a cluster of HBase Hadoop servers within 10 minutes can end up saving months of development time. This same kind of simplicity has been applied to some of GoGrid’s other solutions as well, allowing customers to access a broad range of services that are intricately networked, secured, firewalled and orchestrated on demand without being locked into GoGrid.

While Keagy recognized what we’d later come to know as cloud services as early as 2004, his vision was always to provide customers with programmable infrastructure on demand. With multiple technology partners, he has created a service that allows businesses to not only achieve distinction, but to customize the services that comprise their site’s infrastructure and architecture.This has made GoGrid a pioneer in the Big Data technologies space. GoGrid is one example of a company that has reached newlevels of success by providing thoughtful solutions built on the concept of Open Data Services. They’ve prioritized customer satisfaction and with the help of decades of experience, brought ease of use to where it’s least likely to be found. GoGrid’s innovation in offering these programmable infrastructures at the touch of a button paves the way for a brighter future in technology as a whole.
