"Backup-to-Cloud is a key application of storage clouds. Mezeo is enabling a growing eco-system of applications to be compatible with our cloud storage platform... We are excited about the ZCloud API, as it will help us to easily integrate backup software applications with our cloud without requiring cloud storage service provider developers to understand the specifics of any particular backup software."

Steve Lesem, CEO, Mezeo Software Corporation

"Eucalyptus enables private and hybrid clouds for enterprise data centers. Backup to internal storage clouds instead of ad-hoc storage devices provides great flexibility to IT managers.... ZCloud API is a welcome next step in the evolving cloud based infrastructure landscape and we look forward to the integration between the Eucalyptus Walrus Storage System and ZCloud."

Woody Rollins, CEO, Eucalyptus Systems, Inc.

"Storage clouds represent a radical shift in secondary and tertiary storage. With increasing Internet bandwidth and economies of scale of storage cloud vendors, IT managers will realize dramatic cost and complexity reduction for their off-site backup needs... By normalizing the idiosyncrasies of specific clouds, ZCloud enables a vibrant ecosystem needed to serve this growing demand."
