SimpliVity hyperconverged solutions to be distributed in Asia by Westcon-Comstor

Westcon-Comstor, the technology distributor with worldwide practices focused on cloud, global deployment, services, security, unified communications and collaboration, networking and data centres, has partnered with SimpliVity to distribute the SimpliVity hyperconverged infrastructure platform – including the OmniCube and OmniStack integrated solutions – across Asia, including Singapore, mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Patrick Aronson, VP, Asia Westcon-Comstor said the move is an extension of a successful agreement in Europe. “Hyperconvergence is one of the fastest-growing segments in IT and more enterprises are seeing SimpliVity’s transformational value. We want to help our partners harness that opportunity so their customers can quickly understand the OmniCube and OmniStack’s economic benefits by simplifying the data centre,” he said.

SimpliVity’s hyperconverged infrastructure consolidates all infrastructure and data services below the hypervisor into a single unified stack running on x86 building blocks. By simplifying the legacy infrastructure stack, OmniCube and OmniStack deliver the performance, reliability, availability, security, and data protection that enterprises require – but with the economics of the cloud. The result can be as much as three times TCO savings.

“Customers across the globe have already been realising SimpliVity’s substantial cost savings and benefits, but our partnership with Westcon-Comstor will extend our reach even further,” said Scott Morris, VP, Asia Pacific and Japan, Sales at SimpliVity. “Our new partnership complements our presence in Singapore and rapidly expands our coverage in (mainland) China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, giving SimpliVity the opportunity to transform even more enterprises across the globe.”
