SMA Technologies moves to the cloud with the release of OpCon Cloud

SMA Technologies Inc., makers of OpCon workload automation and orchestration solutions, is releasing OpCon Cloud, a solution designed to reduce the burden of IT infrastructure issues and automate repetitive tasks.

The cloud-based platform is delivered as a white-glove service and can be up and running in as little as 24 hours—and is easily scalable as a business grows, according to the vendor. 

“Let’s face it, financial institutions understand how to service their customers but are not in the business of maintaining a data center, which can be extremely distracting,” said Todd Weiss, VP of product at SMA Technologies. “This is where our new OpCon Cloud solution provides true value, as it offers banks, credits unions, and other transactional businesses more flexibility and resources by integrating with the cloud versus hosting on a local server. Internal IT staffs are faced with increasing workloads and limited resources, and this platform enables them to automate manual tasks to free up time to focus on strategic issues that directly affect bottom line.”

OpCon Cloud not only offers a lower cost of operation but can address bandwidth issues (maintaining and upgrading processing and storage capacity to manage increased workloads) instantly versus undergoing a complex, expensive, and time-consuming IT infrastructure update.

The platform eliminates the need for expensive IT hardware, software licensing fees and the staff required to support on-site infrastructure and ensures business continuity during a natural disaster or other major disruption as applications and data are securely backed up and protected.
