The folks at eWEEK have been giving Marathon a lot of love lately. On Monday they announced the winners of the eWEEK Excellence Awards and named us the winner in the infrastructure software category for everRun VM and had this to say:

“If infrastructure is the heart of the network, then infrastructure software is the brains. Marathon software helps to make these brains that much smarter with everRun VM, a product with the potential to solve many of the problems found in today’s complex networks. everRun VM combines server virtualization with high availability, leveraging Citrix XenServer Enterprise Edition. With everRun VM, enterprises now have a fault-tolerant virtual-server solution that can provide continuous access to network services and reduce operating costs, yet is designed to be easy to implement and manage.”

In addition, the voting for eWEEK’s Best in Show wrapped up yesterday, and we weren’t the top winner, however we were in the running for second place as of late last night. Winner or not, it’s an honor to be recognized among so many top level companies that all produce products that can be considered as having the greatest impact on business moving forward.

Congrats to all nominees and winners!
