Elastisys partners up with Swedish cloud provider Acon to deliver Welkin and our Compliant Stack as managed services. Acon has a long history of delivering high quality cloud services from northern Sweden from their data center located deep in the Swedish mountains.
Acon today serves a large set of customers, including in the retail sector, of which many see containers as a core component in their future application stack.
Our customers see containers and Kubernetes as the prefered way to develop and operate their next generation applications. Therefore it’s natural for Acon to offer a container platform in partnership with Elastisys for customers that want to run their containerized applications in a secure environment under Swedish jurisdiction, says Erik Sharifi Norrman, Solutions Engineer at Acon.
Elastisys manages modern cloud-native platforms across a range of cloud providers across both Europe and the US.
We are happy to have Acon as partners and see great potential working together to deliver a secure and modern container platform on a cloud infrastructure with extremely low environmental footprint, says Robert Winter, CEO at Elastisys.
