Platform9, the company making private clouds easy, today announced that it has been named one of 15 cool cloud companies by CRN: http://www.crn.com/slide-shows/cloud/300078842/15-cool-cloud-companies-and-their-even-cooler-products.htm. This is the eighth major accolade Platform9 has received since launching in 2014.

"There's a wave of innovative companies launching products that are reshaping the way business customers interact with and take advantage of their public and private cloud environments," said Joseph Tsidulko, a senior editor at CRN. "They're making clouds more manageable, agile, visible, affordable, insightful and secure -- and easier to adopt."

Platform9 breaks the complexity barrier for private clouds with the first SaaS OpenStack solution for enterprise infrastructure. The solution transforms an organization's existing servers into an AWS-like agile, self-service private cloud within minutes -- enabling organizations small or large to run their private clouds efficiently, at scale, while leveraging latest open source innovations.

"We're honored to be named one of the coolest cloud companies," said Sirish Raghuram, co-founder and CEO of Platform9. "Platform9's mission is to transform the private cloud computing experience -- to make it simple, flexible and open for IT admins and DevOps alike -- and we're thrilled with the interest and customer traction we've received since announcing general availability in January."
