Skytap today announced a strategic alliance with SAVVIS, provider of IT infrastructure services for business applications, to resell Skytap’s Virtual Lab service.
Skytap Virtual Lab provides virtualized infrastructure, including hardware, storage and networking resources. Customers get access to a complete virtual lab solution on demand including a pre-populated virtual machine library with major operating systems, databases and other application software.
SAVVIS also announced a business alliance with Parallels. The alliance enables independent software vendors (ISVs) to rapidly convert their single-tenancy applications to operate in a Software as a Service (SaaS) environment without having to re-architect their software.
