Skava joins HPE-driven Cloud28+ to Offer Hybrid Cloud Retail Solutions

Infosys announced its membership as a technology partner in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE)-driven Cloud28+ community and digital platform.

By leveraging the Cloud28+ community’s vast network of service providers, Skava, a wholly owned subsidiary of Infosys, aims to expand its market presence in countries where business and regulatory considerations call for private and hybrid cloud deployments working with local partners.

Cloud28+ helps cloud service providers and independent software vendors form new alliances with each other and end-user customers, and offers services via a vast catalog of thousands of Infrastructure-as-a-Service, Software-as-a-Service, and Platform-as-a-Service offerings. Professional services, cloud software, and deployable apps are also offered via the community’s digital platform.

Together with HPE, Skava is creating a hybrid cloud version of its retail microservices technology stack, capable of being deployed across cloud environments, including public, private, hosted, and managed. This benefits customers through:

* Bursting capabilities – the ability to move between on-premises to hosted or public cloud.
* Openness – no platform lock-in with flexible application catalog integration.
* Flexible financing – organizations can choose either public, on-premises via HPE Flexible Capacity Services and financing options, or hosted via the Cloud28+ partner network.
* Deployment from anywhere – work with the local Cloud28+ partner network to find the right service provider to address local business requirements.
