Rackspace Offers Hybrid Cloud To Cbazaar.com


Bangalore: Rackspace Hosting, the open cloud company, has been selected by online Indian ethnic wear store Cbazaar to host and support its online sales backbone using the Rackspace Hybrid Cloud.

 With Rackspace Hybrid Cloud, Cbazaar has made its e-commerce portal to position for further growth and expansion. The firm operates sales channels in over 130 countries with a clothing collection including over 20,000 exquisite Indian designs and styles. Building for a new era of growth with open integration, Cbazaar has been able to connect its structured query language (SQL) database inside its new Rackspace Hybrid Cloud model.

 “As an online retailer, it’s imperative that our customers are able to access our website at all times, especially during seasonal sale periods where we see traffic surge. For every minute we experience downtime, our bottom line is impacted,” said Hitesh Haran, AVP – IT, Cbazaar.com. “With Rackspace’s hybrid cloud, we can combine public cloud, private cloud and dedicated bare metal computing to combine and tailor our services to create the best fit for our applications.”

 Rackspace’s Hybrid Cloud offering now allows Cbazaar to connect a dedicated hosting environment to a public cloud environment. To support Cbazaar’s need for risk management, Rackspace implemented round the clock monitoring and a managed back-up system. Haran added, “We have improved our performance while subsequently reducing costs, and Rackspace’s round the clock Fanatical Support allows us to consistently offer first class online shopping experience to our customers.”

 “We are delighted to be working with Cbazaar and supporting the firm on its road to cloud-based retail success,” said Ajit Melarkode, managing director of Rackspace Asia Pacific.
