Smartronix Recognized in the Most Recent Gartner Cloud IAAS Magic Quadrant
Herndon, Virginia – 3 June
2015 – Gartner, Inc. recently
released
an updated Magic Quadrant for Cloud Infrastructure as a
Service (IaaS) worldwide, assessing the market for cloud
IaaS. In that report, Amazon Web Services (AWS) maintains a
sizable margin with its lead against other competitors,
continuing movement to the top of the leader’s
quadrant.
Smartronix, an AWS Premier Consulting
Partner, was recognized in the Magic Quadrant report as a
"third-party cloud service brokerage" that
can "resell major cloud IaaS provider’ solutions, and
that typically adds significant value as well."
Specifically in the "Government (Federal)
Context" section of the report, Smartronix was
identified as a company that can help Government customers
overcome potential challenges in contracting directly with
cloud providers due to Government acquisition rules.
Smartronix VP of Sales, Sean
McCarron, noted, "This acknowledgement comes on the
heels of Smartronix’ recent recognition as one of the first
companies to successfully enter into the AWS Managed Service
Partner Program, further highlighting our commitment to the
cloud and the delivery of agile solutions to our customers,
addressing their often unique and custom needs."
Having delivered AWS cloud solutions
to dozens of enterprise and commercial customers as well as
the United States Department of the Treasury and other
Federal and civilian agencies, Smartronix has a long history
of developing and managing customer environments on
AWS. Smartronix CloudAssured Managed Services are

(ITIL). Smartronix solutions also have met the rigorous
FISMA Moderate and FedRAMP requirements for Federal cloud

"Cloud services continue to be
an expanding piece of our customer’s business strategy and
IT focus. Companies are developing an increasing appetite to
improve agility and speed to market and Smartronix
professional, migration, and managed services help these
organizations develop a strategy and plan through to daily
