Tech Data and Westcon-Comstor to Distribute Datadobi

Datadobi, in data migration software, announced the appointment of Tech Data Corp.‘s Technology Solutions business (formerly a division of Avnet) and Westcon-Comstor (WestconGroup Inc.) as their distribution partners for the APJ region.

Data mobility is typically a laborious, time-consuming, and complex process. Technology Solutions and Westcon-Comstor’s professional services teams will enlist the functionality of DobiMiner software to ease their customers’ technology transitions from any legacy platform to next-generation storage by providing a file migration solution with performance, functionality, and reliability.

“Migration is a key part of almost every storage refresh, whether it be staying on a customer’s site or split with public or private cloud capacity. Traditionally, data migration has been time consuming, complex, and risky, and as a consequence, not something that was offered by the majority of partners,” said Andy Milburn, regional director, Datadobi APJ. “By using DobiMiner, Technology Solutions and Westcon can now enable all of their partners to include migration services as part of every appropriate storage opportunity. With DobiMiner, new systems will be deployed rapidly and customers will quickly realize the TCO improvements offered by storage vendors – most of which assume an early decommissioning of existing equipment.”
