StrikeIron Inc., involved in Web Services commercialization through its Web Services Business Network (WSBizNet), announced a strategic partnership with Jamcracker, a provider of on-demand delivery software. Users of Jamcracker’s recently announced Jamcracker Services Delivery Network (JSDN) will have access to services listed or hosted within StrikeIron’s Web Services Marketplace.

“Jamcracker is enabling the on-demand market to grow dramatically,” says K.B. Chandrasekhar, CEO of Jamcracker. “With the addition of the StrikeIron Web Services Marketplace to JSDN, we can provide our customers with a more comprehensive solution for delivering real-time, on-demand solutions.”

JSDN will help the channel leverage the on-demand model by providing a certified catalog of software/services that customers can easily consume directly and through downstream channel partners. JSDN will address common challenges facing the channel providers that want to build a business around Software on-demand including access to a comprehensive services catalog, common administration of disparate systems, and the ability to re-brand and integrate.

“We’re rapidly approaching a time when the majority of on-demand infrastructure will require Web services. Companies like Salesforce.com and Google are opening their APIs to enable richer solutions to be developed by their partners,” said Bob Brauer, CEO and president of StrikeIron. “With our partnership with Jamcracker, companies can now leverage a broad range of externally available Web services and develop superior and profitable on-demand solutions as well.”
