Swedish enterprise applications provider IFS has gained official Microsoft Windows Azure certification for its ERP service.
Customers can now choose to deploy its IFS Applications 8 suite onto Microsoft’s public cloud platform in full confidence that the software will perform on a par with performance on similar on premise servers and storage, the organisation claimed.
Furthermore, IFS said the certification enables deployment of Applications onto a private cloud using Microsoft Windows Server Hyper-V.
“By certifying on Windows Azure we give our customers the choice to deploy IFS Applications on premises, or in the cloud," said IFS CTO Dan Matthews.
“We chose to do this on Windows Azure since it provides a complete technology stack to run IFS Applications, and because of growing interest [in] Windows Azure.”
Steven Martin, general manager of Windows Azure at Microsoft, added: “Windows Azure is and open, flexible and scalable cloud platform that enables customers to build, deploy and manage applications across a global network of Microsoft managed data centres.
“We are pleased IFS has chosen to extend its deployment models to include Windows Azure to help our joint customers fully seize the power of cloud computing.”
