Announcement Corporate

Locuz Enterprise Solutions Limited, a subsidiary of 3i Infotech Limited, announced today that it has achieved Data Center Unified Computing Authorised Technology Provider (ATP) status from Cisco. This designation recognises Locuz as having fulfilled the training and program prerequisites to sell, deploy and support the Cisco Unified Computing Systems in India. 

The Cisco Unified Computing System unites network, computational, storage access, and virtualisation resources in a single energy-efficient system that can reduce the costs and complexity of information technology (IT) infrastructure, help extend capital assets, and improve business agility well into the future. A new computing model, the Cisco Unified Computing System uses integrated management and combines a “wire once” unified fabric with an industry-standard computing platform to optimise virtualisation, reduce the data center’s total overall cost, and provide dynamic resource provisioning for businesses that are becoming increasingly collaborative, mobile and distributed. 

 

Commenting on this achievement Vijay Wadhi, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Locuz Enterprise Solutions Ltd said, “We at Locuz are extremely pleased to achieve the Cisco ATP certification for Data Center Unified Computing. This authenticates our expertise in Data Center Technology and provides us with a competitive edge. Also, by achieving this specialisation we would like to reiterate our commitment towards delivering the highest quality technology solutions to our customers.” 

“Taking advantage of an architectural shift in the data center, Cisco’s new computing model can help customers transform the data center into a dynamic IT environment with the power to increase productivity, improve efficiency and drive virtualisation to an entirely new level,” said John Growdon, director, Worldwide Channels Go-to-Market Group at Cisco. 

“As a Cisco Data Center Unified Computing Authorised Technology Provider, Locuz Enterprise Solutions Limited is a member of an elite ecosystem of industry leaders working with Cisco to stimulate technology innovation, augment service delivery, and accelerate the market adoption of unified computing.” 

To qualify as a Cisco Data Center Unified Computing Authorised Technology Provider, Locuz had to meet a number of requirements. These included achieving the Cisco Data Center Networking Infrastructure Specialisation and the Cisco Data Center Storage Networking Specialisation as well as demonstrating mature competencies in server, storage and virtualisation technologies. 

Cisco’s Authorised Technology Provider Program is part of a comprehensive go-to-market strategy for emerging and advanced technologies. The program helps Cisco to define the knowledge, skills and services that channel partners need to sell, deploy and support these technologies. As the market changes, an ATP status is often the precursor to a Cisco specialisation. 

Recently, Locuz achieved a Customer Satisfaction Excellence Gold Star from Cisco. This designation recognises Locuz for delivering outstanding customer service to customers in India.
