Enomaly Inc. was a Toronto-based developer of system software for cloud computing virtualization and management. Founded in 2004 by Reuven Cohen, George Bazos, and Lars Forsberg, the company initially began as an open-source consultancy and system integrator. It later shifted its focus to cloud computing products and its Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform.
The company's core product was the Enomaly Elastic Computing Platform (ECP), designed to allow web hosts and service providers to build and offer their own IaaS and cloud services, similar to Amazon EC2. This platform provided a web-based tool for managing a virtualized infrastructure, supporting hypervisors like Xen, KVM, and OpenVZ. Enomaly targeted its services toward telecommunication carriers, hosting providers, and Fortune 500 companies. In November 2010, the company launched SpotCloud.com, a marketplace for buying and selling unused cloud computing capacity.
In 2009, Richard Reiner joined as Chairman and CEO. The company received an undisclosed amount of seed funding in September 2009 from investors including MaRS Discovery District. In December 2011, Enomaly announced it was being acquired by Virtustream, an enterprise cloud solutions provider. The acquisition was completed in early 2012. Subsequently, Virtustream was acquired by EMC in 2015 for approximately $1.2 billion. Dell then acquired EMC in 2016.
