John Lucey, Cohesity's UK and
Ireland Country Manager, said: "We are delighted to have iomart
onboard as one of our major World-Wide Service Providers. iomart
has recognised the competitive advantage Cohesity's technology can
bring to its service offerings and has the skills, maturity and
execution capabilities to satisfy its customers' business
requirements whether that be on-premise, in the Cloud, or in a
multi cloud/Hybrid model."
Data sprawl is a huge challenge particularly because secondary
data and applications-including backups, disaster recovery, files,
objects, test/dev, archives and analytics-are massively fragmented
across a complex patchwork of specialised point products and
infrastructure silos in the data centre and the cloud. Many
organisations use a multitude of point products to manage these
silos which is complex, costly and inefficient. With Cohesity's
hyperconverged secondary data and apps solution, iomart customers
can aggregate all their secondary storage function on to a single
unified, scalable platform, increasing data resilience and
significantly reducing Total Cost of Ownership.
Declan Sharpe, iomart's UK Sales
Director, said: "Cohesity enables us to offer highly differentiated
services to customers who are struggling with the challenge of mass
data fragmentation in the face of greater regulation. Not only does
it help remove data silos and reduce the time and costs associated
with complex data management, it gives customers a sandbox
environment to test new software releases and features, as well as
enabling them to derive unparalleled insights from their untapped
data through its inbuilt analytics engine."
iomart will offer Cohesity as a shared service for smaller
businesses and as a dedicated service for large enterprises. The
evolutionary approach to data management will allow customers to
gradually change the way they use data, mitigating any risk and
interruption to the business during a more dramatic shift to the
cloud. Over time, and at vastly reduced cost, modern hyperconverged
processes can be employed to retire old silos, give greater
business insight and real-time visibility into customer data, and
recover any file, Virtual Machine (VM) or even hundreds of VMs
instantaneously with Cohesity instant recovery.
Declan Sharpe added: "Cohesity
fits into our commitment to deliver truly hybrid solutions to our
customers. Not only can it protect and maintain local storage and
data requirements at the edge, it can also seamlessly extend to
Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud without requiring separate
cloud gateways. Customers can also choose to replicate their
protected data into iomart's business continuity cloud for near
instant Disaster Recovery as a Service."
