Pivot3, a leading provider of intelligent infrastructure solutions, today announced a partnership with Red River,
a technology transformation company, to address the needs of large
federal agencies by supporting their complex, mission-critical,
multi-petabyte deployments. As government and defense organizations
increasingly turn to hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) and hybrid
cloud environments to modernize their datacenters, Pivot3 and Red
River's joint offerings deliver greater security, resilience and
manageability at scale to support the evolving needs of government IT.
"Red
River has a rich legacy in the industry as a driving force in helping
government IT teams implement and transform their operations with
innovative technology solutions," said Rance Poehler, chief revenue
officer, Pivot3. "The federal channel is critical to Pivot3's growth and
success, and we're honored to partner with an industry leader like Red
River to bring solutions to market that help federal agencies evolve by
simplifying deployment, reducing risk and liabilities, and accelerating
time to value."
Pivot3
and Red River have been partnering to secure large wins across the
federal government. The two organizations have seen accelerated growth
and a steep incline in opportunities and revenue throughout the
partnership, expanding into state and local government as well as other
markets across the private sector.
The
two partners recently completed an implementation with a large defense
agency, deploying Pivot3's infrastructure across twelve different sites
with individual classified and unclassified networks and
infrastructures. With a wide range of applications supporting operations
- including mission-critical database and analytic applications - the
agency required a resilient infrastructure that could support multiple
mixed-application workloads with no data loss and could scale rapidly
and easily to meet their ongoing needs.
Pivot3
offers the industry's only policy-based Intelligence Engine to automate
application performance, data protection and placement, and data
security, which enabled Red River to offer the customer a solution that
simplifies management of otherwise complex and time-consuming tasks.
"Pivot3
has distinguished itself as a true technology leader, supporting many
of the world's most complex IT environments with its simple and scalable
infrastructure," said Alan Dumas, chief revenue officer for Red River.
"We are eager to expand our market presence with Pivot3 and help our
customers use hyperconvergence and hybrid cloud to enable their digital
transformation initiatives."
