Replicated Named a ‘Cool Vendor’ by Gartner®

Replicated, Inc.

Replicated, a leading provider of multi-prem software delivery and management, today announced it has been included in the 2021 list of Cool Vendors in Cloud Computing by Gartner. “We are thrilled to be named a Gartner Cool Vendor in Cloud Computing,” said Grant Miller, co-founder and CEO of Replicated. “We started this company nearly seven years ago with the ambition to make folks rethink what on-prem software distribution and management could look like. Hopefully, with this designation, we’re a step closer to erasing the connotations of server racks, binaries, and bespoke operations and replacing them with ubiquitous Kubernetes-based, automated operations. In a word, maybe our efforts to modernize this distribution model have made on-prem software cool again.” Key findings in the report include: “Seventy-six percent of respondents to Gartner’s 2020 Cloud End-User Buying Behavior Survey that have adopted cloud infrastructure intend to operate in a multi-cloud environment. The primary reasons are to increase service availability, to leverage best-of-breed services across providers and to comply with compliance requirements across the globe. Real-world multi-cloud implementations are mired with architectural complexity, unclear total cost of ownership (TCO) and uneven governance due to inadequate planning and lack of a deliberate strategy. There is a new, emerging breed of startups with a cloud-first product mindset and multi-cloud product capabilities that are focused on easing multi-cloud adoption challenges.” As the report states, what makes Replicated a ‘Cool Vendor’ is that “it enables software vendors to distribute commercial Kubernetes applications to customer-controlled environments, thereby satisfying enterprise requirements for data security, reliability, and digital transformation.” You can access the full report here. About Replicated: Replicated is the modern way to ship on-prem software. Replicated gives software vendors a container-based platform for easily deploying cloud native applications inside customers'​ environments to provide greater security and control.

COMCAST DONATES $60,000 AND 150 LAPTOPS TO WASHINGTON STATE MILITARY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS DURING NATIONAL VETERANS AND MILITARY FAMILIES MONTH

Comcast Washington

Comcast announced partnerships with three military community organizations in Washington state. In honor of National Veterans and Military Families Month, the company donated $60,000 and 150 laptops to Operation Military Family, Paralyzed Veterans of America, and the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs. The donations are part of Project UP, Comcast’s $1 billion commitment to reach 50 million people over the next 10 years with the tools, resources, and skills needed to succeed in a digital world. According to research by the Army University Press, many American military Veterans face challenges with digital equity, especially since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Comcast’s donations will help Veterans access technology integral for career advancement and social connection. These donations are part of Comcast's continued dedication to supporting Veterans and their families nationwide, in several ways. Since 2011, Comcast has donated more than $191 million in cash and in-kind contributions to military community organizations. “Our partnership with Comcast goes beyond just a monetary donation. Comcast is committed to helping Veterans access the technology they need for career and social success in the modern digital landscape,” said Mike Schindler, CEO of Operation Military Family. “These donations will allow our Veterans with mobility, adaptive, or accessible concerns obtain equipment and resources for those that have a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) or diseases such as MS or ALS, their families, who we serve, advance in training, their careers, and personal lives. Technology and the ability to use it to its fullest potential is imperative for Veterans with a SCI or disease, and we appreciate Comcast’s dedication to technology support,” said Matthew Mickunas, President, Northwest Paralyzed Veterans of America, Washington State. “Our long-term partnership with Comcast is one of our strongest corporate partnerships in Washington. Their support has and will continue to be a powerful asset to Veterans across the state,” said Lourdes E. “Alfie” Alvarado-Ramos, director Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs. “We’re honored to partner with military community organizations that make powerful impacts with Veterans across the state of Washington. These organizations help them build digital equity at a time when it has never been more important,” said Carla Carrell, External Affairs Director for Comcast in Washington. Comcast employs more than 17,000 Veterans, National Guard and reserve service members, and military spouses. In 2020, the company was ranked number one on Military Times’ “Best for Vets: Employers list.” Comcast’s tradition of hiring and supporting the military community started with Ralph Roberts, the company founder and World War II U.S. Navy Veteran. Comcast puts significant effort into supporting military Veterans and their families at all stages of their careers, which led to Comcast being named a Gold-level Military Friendly® Employer and a Military Friendly® Spouse Employer by Victory Media.
