6fusion International today announced the formation of 6fusion Online India Pvt Ltd in conjunction with India Compute Interchange (ICIx), the financial marketplace for India to trade compute resources.

6fusion standardized the economic measurement of IT infrastructure and cloud services, which provides IT economic transparency to the global market.

6fusion's technology, the Workload Allocation Cube (WAC) is the industry's standard for IT economic measurement, allowing an "apples to apples" comparison regardless of technology, vendor or platform.

With 6fusion's UC6 Platform, organizations can view and manage the Total Cost of Consumption (TCC) of their business services in real time and achieve a higher level of cost optimization, forecasting accuracy and business agility.

The new company, 6fusion Online India Pvt Ltd, headquartered in Vadodara, Gujarat, will be focused on servicing the needs of the growing Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) market in India and will enable enterprise organizations, government agencies, and cloud service providers to take advantage of the Workload Allocation Cube (WAC), to benchmark, measure and efficiently transact compute resource power in the Indian marketplace.

"We have only started to scratch the surface of the 'Cloud' in India. Benchmarking, measuring and eventually being able to transact IT Infrastructure in a transparent, open market is a reality and 6fusion Online India is the last piece of the puzzle needed to make India the envy of the digital world," said ICIx Director Hemal Mewada.

"From an operations standpoint, with 6fusion Online India, ICIx has everything to help fulfill Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of 'Make in India', 'Digital India' and, by assuring green power transactions, 'Green India'," he added.
