Actifio launches marketplace for service providers

Actifio, the data copy virtualization specialist, is now offering a Service Provider Marketplace offering a broad range of cloud and managed services from service providers around the world.



The marketplace is available to all providers offering data management services based on Actifio's virtualization technology. Partners can also use the marketplace to complement their product portfolio with white label cloud services. The Actifio technology enables companies to move data across a hybrid cloud infrastructure. Service providers can use Acitifio's data virtualization technology to run reliability and business-agility applications with lower-cost SLAs.

Most use Actifio's API to relatively easily integrate data copy virtualization into their current operational systems as well as on-boarding, support and / or billing systems. Each vendor also maintains a fully trained Professional Services & Operations team on site to guide customers through the process and answer questions.

For the market launch of the service provider marketplace there are currently 22 suppliers from North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa to choose from. Service Providers include IBM, Sungard Availability Services, Verizon, Versutus, Datacom, or Spectrum. For a more personalized approach, customers can target providers based on criteria such as location, type of service, and cloud functionality.Extend service catalog
