Infoblox offers managed service providers new core network solutions

Consumption-based model fills critical gap to strengthen DDI infrastructure.


Johannesburg, 13 Sep 2018

Infoblox, the leader in secure cloud-managed network services, today announced a new program that combines its market-leading DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI) and DNS-based security solutions with a consumption-based pricing model to enable managed service providers (MSPs) to fill a gap in their service portfolio.

DDI infrastructure is critical to enterprise networks. Most organisations, however, attempt to manage DDI internally due to the limited availability of such services from typical MSPs. Infoblox is addressing this problem by offering a robust set of services combined with a flexible deployment and pricing model. This allows enterprises to focus on their core competencies, while also giving MSPs an option to provide a full suite of services that includes secure DDI.

For MSPs, a robust portfolio of services and flexible pricing and deployment models addresses a wide variety of customer needs without significantly impacting operations or sales motions. The services can be seamlessly added to existing managed offers, greatly reducing the massive upfront investments typically associated with new service creations. A flexible range of potential packages also provides MSPs the ability to scale from entry-level options to offer complete managed secure DDI and threat intelligence solutions.

With this offering, Infoblox enables MSPs to:

* Fill a critical gap in their portfolio with essential secure DDI services;
* Grow their share of wallet with an expanded service portfolio;
* Offer flexible deployment options, including physical, virtual and cloud-based solutions;
* Maximise profitability through multiple pricing options; and
* Partner with the industry leader in DDI to improve success.

"Having a strong DDI infrastructure is crucial to any business's success, especially as companies move to a more digitally integrated future," said Shaun Antram, Partner at PC Network. "As a provider of global DDI managed services, we think that Infoblox's new offering will significantly help break down upfront barriers, making it easier to ensure that our customers have a suitable infrastructure for delivering their mission-critical DDI environment."

"There is a gap in managed services offered by MSPs today," said Dilip Pillaipakkam, vice-president and general manager of Infoblox's Service Provider Business. "Infoblox's secure DDI services and the new consumption-based model allows MSPs to capitalise on market demand, offer deployment flexibility to their customers, and pay based on actual usage, minimising the upfront investment. The model allows us to ensure that we offer solutions aligned with customer need, whether they choose to deploy and manage the solutions themselves or consume them as a service."
