Client in spotlight
CloudVelox, founded in 2010, specializes in cloud automation platform software, offering the One Hybrid Cloud solution with drag-and-drop automation based on application blueprints. Their hybrid cloud solution provides secure workload migration, reducing business risk, enhancing IT productivity, and ensuring resilience for uninterrupted operations. With a reputation for innovation and effective solutions, CloudVelox became a trusted leader in simplifying cloud migration while maintaining the security and efficiency of workloads — before its acquisition by VMware in 2018 validated the strength of its technology and market position. Kellton partnered with CloudVelox to deliver the front end web development capability needed to bring this vision to life.
Unlocking Digital Success
Ideation
The engagement was conceptualized around a clear objective: build a comprehensive front end web development solution that would bring CloudVelox's product to life for end users. CloudVelox had powerful backend technology but needed an intuitive, cloud-ready UI to make it accessible and compelling. Kellton envisioned a solution that would leverage Django/Python and React development to deliver a high-performance interface, while operating within the fast-paced, agile environment of a venture-funded startup — accelerating CloudVelox's ability to demonstrate product value to investors and customers alike.
Our approach
Kellton served as CloudVelox's front end development partner, designing a sophisticated UI while collaborating closely with CloudVelox's internal engineering team through parallel development to accelerate the timeline. Leveraging Django/Python and React expertise, Kellton crafted an intuitive interface complementing CloudVelox's backend, adapting quickly to the startup's changing requirements while maintaining delivery quality. Cloud best practices ensured high performance and optimal Total Cost of Ownership on CloudVelox's infrastructure — with the resulting UI facilitating efficient cloud platform management, reducing migration risk, increasing IT productivity, and supporting CloudVelox's hybrid cloud solution.
Outcomes
Kellton delivered a cutting-edge front end web development solution that complemented CloudVelox's backend technology and brought its cloud automation platform to market faster than would have been possible with internal resources alone. The solution facilitated efficient management of cloud computing platforms for disaster recovery and migration use cases, providing users with an intuitive interface for CloudVelox's drag-and-drop hybrid cloud solution — and giving CloudVelox a product compelling enough to attract significant investor and industry attention.
