MSP Bynet Extends Portfolio With Actifio

Actifio, Inc. expands its presence in Israel via a partnership with Bynet Data Communications, a systems integrator and service provider.

Based in Israel, Bynet brings Actifio Copy Data Virtualization to clients around the world via new cloud services, and will roll out its cloud services initiative to existing and new customers.

Bynet was established in 1975 and is part of the Rad-Bynet Group, composed of more than 20 high-tech companies. The company has direct access to a wide range of IT infrastructure and network solutions. As an Israeli systems integrator, cloud and MSP with an international customer base, Bynet covers a wide portfolio of services. These include data center infrastructures, various services around virtualization, data center transformation and migrations, as well as data lifecycle management. In addition, Bynet offers solutions for big data and analytics, DR, BC and backup.

With copy data virtualization technology, delivered via Actifio’s virtual data pipeline, Bynet will be able to offer its current services not only faster and with better quality, but also add new services and products to make their customers more agile.

An important part is Bynet’s cloud initiative based on Actifio. The essential benefit of the cloud offering is its agility, which is related to Actifio’s platform for data virtualization. The Bynet-Cloud will help companies to obtain services faster and to develop their own applications more quickly and efficiently. The services include IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), SaaS (Software as a Service), DaaS (Desktop as a Service) and BaaS (Backup as a Service), DRaaS (DR as a Service) as well ITaaS (IT as a Service).

“Our new data center will benefit immensely from Actifio’s platform for data virtualization,” said Guy Bergman, head of cloud division computing, Bynet. “We offer companies of any size and industry all services that modern organizations require. In addition, we will also modernize our own backup system with Actifio and offer our customers a Copy Data Cloud. Our technically versed customers know that they can only achieve relatively small gains in agility, flexibility and efficiency through hardware. The data-focused approach with copy data virtualization from Actifio, however, opens up fundamentally new potential which we will exploit step by step.“

“In Israel’s sophisticated IT market, many enterprises have recognized the importance of application data and recognize how its efficient management and intelligent use can be an enabler of business agility,” said Chris Hammans, MD for EMEA, Actifio. “With Bynet we now have a partner on board that can service this demand in Israel. Bynet puts data in the center of their services, a data-centric view Actifio shares entirely, and can support with the only enterprise copy data virtualization platform.“
