LenelS2 continues its move to the cloud with its flagship enterprise security platform OnGuard using the new OnGuard Cloud Edition to run in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment. A pre-configured version of the OnGuard platform enables value-added resellers to deploy the software without lengthy installation or the need for onsite servers. LenelS2 is a part of Carrier, a global provider of heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), refrigeration, fire, security and building automation technologies.
OnGuard’s cloud capabilities have been expanded by creating Amazon Machine Images (AMIs), a pre-configured operating system and virtual machine within the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). These are made available to resellers and end users via the AMI listings. Following deployment, AMIs can be customized to meet an end user’s specific needs.
