Alkira is taking its channel presence to new heights, partnering with HighPoint, a leading provider of technology infrastructure solutions. With this partnership, HighPoint can offer customers more personalized multi-cloud networking services and options that are tailored to fit any enterprise's requirements.

Operating in the U.S., London, and Amsterdam, HighPoint provides customers access to the best available network infrastructure, collaboration tools, data centers, and security solutions-all with risk-mitigated implementation and management of their technology. The company, listed in CRN as a 2021 Triple Crown Award winner, has proven experience helping customers build seamless hybrid- and multi-cloud environments, making Alkira a natural fit.

"At HighPoint, we have a reputation for helping our customers invest in technology that is transformational for their business, and this is where Alkira is delivering tremendous value," said Neil Dearman, HighPoint Head of Technology, UK. "By partnering with Alkira, we're able to offer customers a significantly simplified experience deploying a global cloud backbone for end-to-end and any-to-any network connectivity, resulting in accelerated innovation and time to market."

The shift to multiple and hybrid clouds has created a demand for new multi-cloud networking (MCN) solutions that can unify networking infrastructure. Alkira simplifies and accelerates the journey to and across clouds, automating the entire creation, management, and operation of the network. Managed using the same controls, policies, and security network admins know, Alkira instantly scales, provides end-to-end visibility, and is delivered as a service. The company's intuitive point-and-click design canvas allows customers to draw entire global end-to-end networks and provision them within minutes. There is no hardware or software to install.

"Digital transformation starts with the network, but for many organizations, harnessing the cloud has proven too complex to generate the strategic value that was promised," said Doug Houghton, Director of Channels at Alkira. "We are very proud to have partnered with HighPoint to help more enterprises simplify and accelerate their cloud journeys, so they can harness the full power of everything the cloud is supposed to offer-today."
