Benefits

Rapidly gain additional revenue

Your customers want agile cloud services now. Developing your own cloud management software will take many man-years (we know, we’ve done it!). Extility is a complete solution that can be rapidly deployed, enabling your customers to buy cloud services in the shortest possible time. Our Foundation Edition is installed straight from DVD, with a proof of concept deployment up and running in an hour or two. Our more flexible Service Provider Edition allows for extensive customisation - and if you need help, our engineers have in-depth experience in doing this rapidly.

Improve margins

Are your operations staff spending time on repetitive activities that add little value to your service quality? Extility’s advanced orchestration features can automate these tasks, freeing up highly skilled staff to concentrate on higher margin activities and to deal pro-actively with more complex issues.  With Extility, your customers will be able to provision, de-provision, start and stop their own servers.

A mature, well-tested, scalable stack

Flexiant has a mature, well-tested, scalable stack. We have substantial history and expertise, having launched the world’s second cloud platform in the summer of 2007. We’ve tripped over (and fixed) scaling problem after scaling problem, so you won’t have to worry about the growth of your platform and customer base.

Additional routes to market

If you are selling data centre services or managed services, you’ll know that it’s difficult to white label them. You’ll also know that it can often be hard to move up the value chain, or to offer more commodity products if you are focussed on the enterprise. Extility’s built in white-labelling and reseller system allows you to set up a reseller channel, and address parts of the market that you have been previously unable to access.

Integrated multi-currency billing

Our unique full-featured integrated multi-currency billing system provides measurement, rating, invoice line generation, invoice generation and credit card collection facilities. Whether you want to provide a full pay-as-you-go cloud computing service, or simply accurately measure the usage of particular users, our billing system will provide the data you need.

Full ‘soup-to-nuts’ system

Extility is a full ‘soup-to-nuts’ software suite – not a toolkit that you will have to stitch together with the aid of expensive consultants. You can install our Foundation Edition yourself, straight from DVD. Of course, it’s modular and flexible, so if need be, you can integrate with your existing system too – but we provide the complete stack that you will need to offer for an Infrastructure-as-a-Service product.  The depth of Extility functionality is shown in the diagram below.
