Tintri, a leading provider of VM-aware storage (VAS) for virtualization and cloud environments, today announced it has signed a new partner agreement with Italian cloud infrastructure provider, Clouditalia. As a leading VAR that specializes in cloud and telecommunications services, Clouditalia sells predominantly to medium-sized Italian companies.

Clouditalia, founded in 2012, is the first company to offer both cloud and telecommunications services to medium-sized customers and partners across Italy.

Tintri systems are trusted with hundreds of thousands of virtual machines running business critical databases, enterprise apps, desktops and mobile apps and private cloud deployments.

Doug Rich, VP EMEA, Tintri, said: “We are delighted that Clouditalia has chosen Tintri to differentiate its services. Clouditalia offers Tintri an ideal platform for long term growth in the mid-market. This is a great opportunity to build our respective businesses."
