CloudBolt Software, a cloud cost management organization, has announced a strategic distribution agreement with Ingram Micro for go-to-market scaling of CloudBolt’s Cloud Management and Augmented FinOps Platform offerings.
Through this distribution agreement, CloudBolt will have access to Ingram Micro’s network of thousands of managed service providers (MSPs) and value-added resellers (VARs). It also aligns its platform with more scalable, high-value solutions across public, private, hybrid, and edge environments.
Agreement allows MSPs to leverage automated cloud management for customers
CloudBolt’s platform will enable Ingram Micro channel partners to expand from basic FinOps to more advanced, automated optimization and orchestration across a broad range of infrastructure options, including cloud-native environments like Kubernetes.
The CloudBolt capabilities that Ingram Micro partners now have access to include:
- Cloud Management Platform (CMP): Manage hybrid, multi-cloud, and containerized environments through a single, unified interface.
- Hybrid Cloud Management (HCM): Streamline orchestration and automate provisioning, governance, and workflows across platforms.
- Augmented FinOps: Intelligent and automated cost optimization that reduces waste up to 99 percent.
- Kubernetes Optimization: ML-powered tuning for containerized workloads.
- Infrastructure Modernization: A flexible alternative to legacy platforms like VMware/Broadcom, enabling full freedom of choice.
“This relationship with Ingram Micro marks a major step forward in CloudBolt’s growth strategy, allowing us to scale across a broader partner base,” said Rod Squires, CEO at CloudBolt. “Our strategic alliance with Ingram Micro opens the doors to a vast ecosystem eager to expand their cloud offerings and deliver more value to their customers. In turn, we’re arming channel partners with the toolset to expand from resellers into trusted cloud advisors– leading modernization efforts, driving real cost savings, and delivering lasting cloud ROI.”
CloudBolt also widens visibility and control capabilities for multi-cloud environments
This agreement also enables organizations of all sizes to utilize CloudBolt’s unified platform to manage hybrid and multi-cloud environments with enhanced automation, visibility, and control.
CloudBolt also delivers intelligent orchestration, continuous optimization, and AI/ML-driven FinOps across the full cloud lifecycle, closing the insight-to-action gap and supporting AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI, and other cloud environments.
“Modernization continues to bring opportunity forward for our channel partners, and we’re pleased to add CloudBolt’s proven suite of products to our portfolio,” said John Kinnan, the executive director of modern infrastructure at Ingram Micro. “From full-scale FinOps to orchestration to Kubernetes optimization, we’re working together to better enable our MSPs to expand their cloud services and deliver greater value to customers across the cloud lifecycle.”
CloudBolt Software has been on a mission to scale and grow in 2025, bringing its services to more customers. Read more about the company’s acquisition of StormForge, an ML-powered Kubernetes resources optimization platform, to help enhance this growth.
