HYCU, Inc., a pioneering
enterprise software company specializing in data backup, recovery and
monitoring for next-generation Enterprise Clouds, and
Daiwabo Information System Co., Ltd. (DIS),
today announced a new agreement that adds HYCU Data Protection for Nutanix
backup and recovery software to DIS's growing portfolio of IT solutions as a
leading end-to-end supply chain solutions provider in Japan.
Hiroyuki
Matsumoto, Managing Director of DIS, noted, "As Japanese companies
look to take advantage of the digital transformation that is so important to
meet their goals, they need the right enterprise cloud solutions, be they
on-premises or multi-cloud. We are very pleased to offer HYCU for Nutanix to
our growing number of Japanese companies looking for tightly-integrated data
protection to achieve this digital transformation."
"The adoption and growth
of multi-cloud IT solutions continues to rise," said Simon Taylor, CEO, HYCU. "As HYCU continues to grow
and expand, now found in more than 60 countries worldwide, and servicing more
than 1,200 customers and 300 distribution and resell partners, expanding across
the Japanese market became a priority for us. We are thrilled to welcome
Daiwabo Information System to the HYCU distribution partner family. We are 100%
committed to our partners and we deliver our solutions to market through our
key strategic partner relationships, it is important that we leverage their
expertise and technology know how for an emerging growth market like Japan."
"Recent events have
shown us the need for Japanese businesses to remain resilient in the face of increased
unpredictability," said Eisaku Machida Corporate Vice President, President
of Nutanix Japan G.K. "Japanese businesses now have greater choice,
greater availability, and greater reassurance all in one solution. That is the
strength of this DIS and HYCU announcement."
With many organizations
looking to take advantage of the best of both on-premises and multi-cloud
computing environments, inclusion of HYCU for Nutanix enables DIS customers to
maintain the necessary control and security, while ensuring they have the right
level of data protection to support their needs. Through the new agreement, DIS
will provide HYCU for Nutanix's purpose-built data protection software to
customers across Japan. With HYCU for
Nutanix, Japanese-based companies will now be able to protect and recover
application specific workloads faster and with the same simplicity they
experience with their Nutanix Enterprise Cloud investments. The relationship
extends to all HYCU software solutions for data protection.
"Since HYCU introduced support for Nutanix
Enterprise Cloud a little more than two years ago, their growth and alignment
with Nutanix innovation has been impressive," said George Crump, President and Lead Analyst, Storage
Switzerland. "As more Japanese companies look to their trusted partners
like Daiwabo Information System in their digital transformation journey and
collaboration with Nutanix as part of that, having tightly integrated data
protection solutions like HYCU will be important."
