1 Introduction:
Imran Khan, Bachelors from Greenwich University, Masters in Marketing from
Greenwich University, discussed some insights of cloud computing and what
happens at Rapid Compute. He was a pricing and Trade Analyst at Maersk
line, Vice President at Cybernet. Now, he is the founding member at Rapid
compute.[3]
2 Rapid Compute:
RapidCompute is an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform that combines
enterprise class infrastructure with the deep-dive expertise and strong support
that is the hallmark of Cybernet’s service portfolio.Rapid Compute offers a
high performance, standards-based, flexible and robust cloud solution.[2] It is
our core belief that provisioning and managing virtual machines should be a
familiar and easy process. With its intuitive customer portal, customers can
comfortably operate and manage their Rapid Machines, quickly scale up and
down as per their business needs and get the true cloud experience.
Rapid Compute could allow organizations to focus on their core businesses
by simply creating their own servers and load their own program’s/software’s,
and save data. The Rapid Compute was not only safe, according to speakers,
but users could also delete the server created and all other data linked that
particular server.The system was ‘pay as you go’, said Imran Khan adding,
“This is a totally automated system where clients only pay for whatever they
require with no human interventions and with return money policy.[1]
The speakers said that while information technology giants like Amazon.com,
Rackspace, Insta Compute and Korea Telecom to mention some international
brands were providing virtual infrastructure, Rapid Compute in Pakistan was
the first of its kind. “This is a localized service where companies will not have to
log-in into networks outside of Pakistan and reduce latency,” said Imran Khan
also elaborating on almost zero costs of investing on buying machinery.
