"The EMC Velocity Service Provider program
enables us to continue to evolve our assured offerings and transform the
provision of IT services into a lean, elastic, assured, green utility. We look
forward to embracing this program as we strive to develop innovative solutions
that allow our customers to store, manage, protect and analyse data in a more
agile, trusted and cost-efficient way," said Jeremy Sanders, chief strategy

portfolio, coupled with the further training and certification received by
