EMC Information Systems International has signed on iValue InfoSolutions as an EMC Velocity Partner in India to market and sell EMC’s Backup, Recovery, and Archival solutions range.
iValue, which is recognised as an upcoming and fast-growing Value Added Distributor (VAD) in the India market, has a strong focus on digital asset protection and management, supported by a dedicated nationwide team which meets the needs of customers through the channel market space in pre-sales, sales, implementation, and post-sales support roles.
EMC already has an existing partnership with iValue to distribute EMC’s Data Domain de-duplication solutions since 2010. iValue will now also distribute the entire product and solution range from EMC’s Backup, Recovery and Systems (BRS) division.
In conjunction with EMC’s Velocity Partner program, iValue aims to expand EMC’s solution offering to its base of over 400 partners and more than 2,500 customers in India.
EMC’s Backup, Recovery and Archival solutions are designed to help customers who are looking for a disk-based solution for their backup, recovery and archival needs, which can form an important part of their information infrastructure setup, especially as enterprises face the challenge of managing rapid data growth or as they consider the prospects of transforming their IT infrastructure towards a cloud computing environment.
“Rapidly growing information, strict service-level agreements and compliance regulations are prompting customers to re-design their backup infrastructure and adopt next-generation disk-based solutions,” says Sanjay Dutta, Country Manager, Data Domain & Backup Recovery Systems, EMC India & SAARC. “We congratulate iValue InfoSolutions in joining EMC’s Velocity Partner Program and are pleased to have its focus and breadth of expertise towards our aim to help customers better manage their information assets.”
Commenting on iValue joining EMC’s Velocity Partner Program, Sunil Pillai, Founder & COO at iValue, says, “Data is doubling every three years across businesses and verticals leading to manageability challenges. iValue’s enhanced partnership with EMC will help our partners provide compelling offerings to address these challenges effectively. We will expand partner eco-system for EMC’s BRS range.”
