Cloud Servers now used by Lawson Software

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Lawson Software earlier today announce a number of services and products  for running its software in a private cloud environment.  This will all be run on Amazon’s public Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Its new ERP (enterprise resource planning) vendor (EC2) has developed grid-computing technology for distributing application workloads over clusters of servers.  It’s new cloud server software has a brand new drag-and-drop Cloud Console tool for managing it’s applications.

Lawson’s  new cloud console should help customers reduce staffing costs and be easy to use, said analyst Ray Wang, partner with Altimeter Group.  Their focus is more on private cloud servers rather than public cloud servers.  “These are state governments, health care organizations, people dealing with a lot of HR data. Granted it’s fairly secure in the [cloud] environment but they still have to answer to their constituents,” he said. “It’s probably not the cheapest thing in the long run, but it’s the right thing for their company.”
