Cohesity Empowers Service Providers to Build, Manage, and Grow Cohesity Powered Multi-Cloud Services on One Web-Scale Platform
Cohesity, the leader of hyperconverged
secondary storage, today announced an expansion of the Cohesity
Partner Program that empowers service providers to rapidly build and
deliver highly differentiated secondary data and application services to
meet the growing demands of enterprise customers. Service providers that
join the Cohesity Partner Program can now utilize new
capabilities in the Cohesity
DataPlatform including multi-tenancy, tenant self-service, and
chargeback reporting to deliver high-value services across private,
public, and hybrid clouds within one web-scale platform.
Cohesity also announced today the Cohesity
Powered trust mark, a designation available only to qualified
partners who build their businesses on Cohesity's trusted platform and
adhere to strict quality standards. The trust mark enables partners to
further differentiate their value in the market while driving customer
preference for their innovative services.
"The Cohesity Partner Program gives service providers innovative ways to
help customers directly address the complexities of mass data
fragmentation while harnessing the power of secondary data and
applications," said Mohit Aron, founder and CEO, Cohesity. "By building
their own solutions on Cohesity's platform, coupled with the credibility
of the Cohesity Powered trust mark, service providers can confidently
offer a wider array of value-added services to their customers, grow
their businesses, and help customers derive the most value from their
secondary data."
According to the recent 451 Research study, Voice of the Enterprise:
Cloud, Hosting and Managed Services, Budgets and Outlook 2017, 70
percent of businesses say they are moving toward multi-cloud/hybrid IT
environments.1 However, few organizations have the skills and
staff required to navigate this new world and are looking to service
providers for a full-range of cloud and managed services-everything from
planning and migration to security and data services, and more. Today's
announcement gives service providers access to Cohesity's continuous
innovation that can fuel their businesses and help their customers
achieve faster time to value.
Seizing the $60B Market for Secondary Data and Applications
Service providers joining the Cohesity Partner Program are ideally
positioned to capture some of the $60 billion total addressable market
(TAM) for secondary data and applications by hosting Cohesity on
customers' premises, in a colocation facility, in their own data
centers, or on leading hyperscale public clouds-in any and all
combinations. They can combine the Cohesity DataPlatform, unified
management with Cohesity
Helios, and integration with VMware vCloud Director to deliver the
following capabilities:
-
Rapidly Increase Revenue on One Web-Scale Platform
The
Cohesity DataPlatform empowers service providers to deliver a broad
range of multi-tenant or single-tenant secondary data services from
one web-scale, hyperconverged platform. Service providers can deliver
a rich catalog of shared or dedicated services across multi-clouds
including the following as a service offerings: backup, archive,
disaster recovery, filer, object storage, test/dev, and analytics.
They can also deliver custom services, such as security as a service,
using Cohesity's API-first architecture and RESTFUL APIs. Cohesity's
built-in security enables service providers to play a key role in
helping their customers address industry data privacy regulations such
as GDPR,
HIPAA and PCI (News - Alert) and data sovereignty requirements.
-
Breakthrough, Secure Multi-Tenancy Platform to Lower Total Cost
of Ownership (TCO)
With the Cohesity platform, service
providers can securely host multiple customers at scale. Cohesity's
integration with VMware vCloud Director securely protects virtual data
centers (vDCs) for tenants while giving tenants self-service
capabilities. Cohesity safeguards data with secure namespace
isolation, per-tenant encryption of data at-rest and in-flight, and a
bring-your-own encryption key. For maximum flexibility, service
providers can deploy Cohesity DataPlatform on Cohesity,
Cisco,
or HPE
hyperconverged secondary storage appliances and integrate their own
management system. By consolidating on a single platform and
eliminating legacy data silos, service providers can reduce
investments, increase return on investment (ROI), and streamline
operations.
-
Web Scale With Advanced Global Deduplication
Cohesity
delivers the scale, availability, resilience, and efficiency that
service providers require. It offers advanced inline, variable length,
cross tenant, and block level global deduplication using the patented Cohesity
SpanFS system. This is critical for achieving the highest levels
of storage efficiency, enabling lower cost and fast data access from
anywhere in the world. Customers can continue to add compute
horsepower and storage capacity without limit and without disrupting
operations to handle growing business needs.
-
Differentiated Customer Experience
With Cohesity's
software-defined platform, service providers can deliver
differentiated cloud and managed services with seamless data mobility
and management, and a consistent customer experience across an array
of clouds including leading public clouds such as Amazon
Web Services (AWS), Microsoft
Azure, and Google
Cloud Platform.
-
Simplified Management
With Cohesity
Helios, a SaaS (News - Alert)-based management solution, service providers gain
unprecedented global access, visibility, and control of secondary apps
and data across all Cohesity nodes. This supports better understanding
of capacity, consumption, and data growth while offering customers
unparalleled insight to untapped data to transform their businesses.
