2014: Inoventica Group consolidated 100% in "Guarantor Park-Internet"

Inoventica Group consolidated 100% of shares of Garant Park-Internet LLC ( Parking.ru IaaS-provider), having redeemed the remained 40% of this asset then transferred the company to a new brand - Inoventica Services from private owners. Inoventica bought in addition the remained 40% at seven individuals - co-owners "Guarantor Park-Interneta" who acted as sellers and at the first transaction in 2011 when Inoventica purchased 60% of authorized capital of this company.

At the same time in a conversation with the reporter of ComNews Vitaly Slizen noted that the redeemed 40% of shares "cost significantly cheaper" (in terms of the cost of 1%), than purchase of three-year prescription. The situation of 2011 when just next day after the transaction the developer of a flagship product of the company - inoSphere left Garant-Parka became the reason of "markdown", - because of which Inoventica and purchased it. The inoSphere system provides accounting, management of hardware and program resources and also in the automated mode allows to manage cloud services. By the time of "escape" from Garant-Parka the inoSphere developer worked on this product of 12 years and wrote 3 million lines of a program code (which was even not documentary)^[2].

Inoventica closed the first transaction on purchase "Guarantor Park-Interneta" in June, 2011, soon after creation of Inoventica.

inoSphere – the only product in the class in the market having ruble rates that protects clients from currency risks (competitors he sees vCenter of the company VMware, Azure from Microsoft and Helion of development of HP). At this inoSphere has several important distinctive features - in particular, allows to control at the level of "iron" (servers, routers, etc.) and has possibilities of self-service for users (Azure has such function also). inoSphere has two installations in Russia, besides, three pilot projects with this product are conducted. inoSphere works in 10 Russian DPCs (with the cumulative park of the equipment over 10 thousand units and storage systems with a capacity more than 3.2 PB).

Ponomareva Olga connects development plans for hosting services of Inoventica Services not only with the organic growth of the market, but also with outflow of the Russian clients from foreign DPCs (both because of the increased costs in connection with depreciation of the ruble, and at the expense of new requirements of Russia to a personal data storage of citizens in its territory). She also notes that the market of a hosting began to be displaced from professional participants to the mass consumer who is not tempted in technical terms, but capable to explain what result he wants to achieve.
