Ingram Micro is increasing data center opportunities for channel partners by offering all-in-one compute and storage-as-a-service solution sets from Veeam and Zadara.

Available now, the solutions address the hybrid infrastructure and storage needs of today’s distributed enterprise. Additionally, they’re sold as a service, making them a 100% operational expense versus a capital expense for the enterprise.

They provide data center opportunities for partners, particularly around compute and storage.

Susan O’Sullivan is Ingram Micro‘s vice president of sales.

“Together with Veaam and Zadara, we’re delivering a scalable solution that helps channel partners simplify and transform their customers’ IT into a more modern, more secure and more scalable infrastructure,” she said.

Ingram Micro’s Integration Center

As part of the expanded relationship, both Veeam and Zadara are leveraging the skill and solutions expertise within Ingram Micro’s Integration Center. This allows them to extend their reach into the channel, and deliver a better and differentiated partner experience.

Furthermore, Ingram Micro, Veeam and Zadara are offering channel partners access to varying training modules available on demand. Members of Ingram Micro’s Trust X Alliance partner community are reporting record growth within the data center category, as a result of the market’s move to work from anywhere.
