MIAMI, Jun 07, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) –Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:TMRK), a leading global provider of managed IT infrastructure services, today announced the initial deployment of its Enterprise Cloud in Latin America. Terremark’s highly reliable cloud computing solutions will leverage Cisco’s Unified Computing System to provide customers highly agile and scalable cloud-based resources from its massively connected Network Access Point (NAP) do Brasil in São Paolo.

“Terremark has been at the forefront of the global shift to cloud computing, and a leading service provider in testing and deploying our breakthrough Unified Computing System platform,” said Soni Jiandani, vice president, Cisco’s Server Access and Virtualization Technology Group. “Cisco Unified Computing System innovations such as memory expansion and the Virtualized Network Interface Card, combined with the power of the Intel Xeon 5600 series processor, have created the highest performing system available to customers today. Cisco’s architectural innovations make the Unified Computing System the ideal platform for running today’s most important business applications.”
Terremark’s Enterprise Cloud, a revolutionary managed cloud computing platform for mission-critical applications and IT infrastructure, combines the agility and scalability of cloud computing with world-class datacenter and computing infrastructure, access to more than 160 global networks and best-in-class managed services, allowing enterprises to meet the real-time needs of their business with greater efficiency and economy than ever before. The Enterprise Cloud allows customers the ability to provision, configure, deploy and manage computing resources for mission-critical applications in minutes, giving control over a flexible pool of computing resources with a web-based console for deploying server capacity on demand. The platform provides proven superior scalability and flexibility, as well as a suite of managed security services that includes comprehensive vulnerability assessments, log aggregation and event correlation, network session flow analysis, attack replay, and application firewall management.
“The availability of Enterprise Cloud services to our customers in Latin America provides them with an innovative and powerful solution to their IT infrastructure needs,” said Rodolfo Garcia, President of Terremark’s Latin American Business Unit. “By purchasing a dedicated resource pool of processing, memory and storage, the Enterprise Cloud offers our customers more flexibility and agility over the traditional server-based model, allowing for a precise and dynamic allocation of computing resources as needed.”
