INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Scale
Computing, the leading provider of hyperconverged solutions,
announced the expansion of their international offices in EMEA
and the United Kingdom with
several new executive hires and aggressive partner and customer
adoption programs. The international offices have seen enormous
revenue and customer increases in the past five years,
necessitating the need to expand its overseas operations. Scale
Computing will be showing the HC3 Platform at IP EXPO in
London at Stand E7 on October 7th
and 8th.
The award-winning Hyperconverged Platform (HC3) from Scale
Computing has been a windfall, garnering channel partnership wins
worldwide, as well as robust adoption from its small-to-midsized
business customer-base. The larger international presence in EMEA
and UK will accommodate Scale Computing's expanded management team
and fast-growing technical staff for the design and operations of
its solutions.
"I'm very excited about this opportunity in EMEA and
Canada as it mirrors Scale
Computing's expanding operations in the US marketplace," said
Jeff Ready, CEO and Co-founder of
Scale Computing. "With hyperconvergence emerging as the wave of the
future, Scale Computing and its cutting-edge hyperconverged
technology for the mid-market is well poised to thrive and
grow."
In line with its increased sales and partners, Scale Computing
EMEA's headquarters continue to expand its management and selected
industry-veteran Simon Marrion to
head up the United Kingdom and
EMEA offices. Under Marrion's leadership, the UK and EMEA
offices will continue their growth momentum and the nurturing
of their partner eco-system. Marrion has a 20-year track
record of building two-tier channels in EMEA for storage and
networking vendors. Prior to joining the company, he was a
Regional Channel Sales Manager at Seagate and Lantronix.
In addition to Marrion, Scale announced the hiring of two more
executives to the EMEA office: Ian
Smith as Scale Computing's EMEA Technical Manager as well as
Leonard Powers as EMEA Systems
engineer. Additional new hires will be announced in the near
future.
