Webair Backups and DR Services Distributed by Tech Data Channel Partners

Webair Internet Development, Inc., a cloud and fully managed infrastructure service provider, announces an agreement with Tech Data Corporation.

Tech Data has made Webair Off-site Backups and DR-as-a-Service (DRaaS) solutions accessible to channel partners worldwide through its StreamOne Enterprise Solutions cloud marketplace.

Webair provides multiple tiers of DR services with instant recovery from ransomware as well as human, infrastructure and application failures via its network of recovery sites. These services include Webair Backups-as-a-Service (BaaS); Backups-as-a-Service to Azure; DR-as-a-Service; DR-as-a-Service to Azure; and Ransomware Recovery-as-a-Service (RRaaS).

Supported platforms include VMware, Hyper-V, physical servers and IBM Power i. The company was also recently listed as a Notable Vendor in Gartner’s June 2017 Magic Quadrant for DR-as-a-Service.

“Webair is excited to partner with Tech Data to provide value-added resellers, ISVs, MSPs and system integrators in their cloud marketplace with easy access to our Off-site Backups and DRaaS solutions,” says Sagi Brody, CTO, Webair. “As a high-touch, long-term partner, Webair lends customers and partners the confidence that it can adapt solutions to suit their evolving IT and production environments, while taking complete ownership and accountability of their DR strategy.“

With Webair’s DRaaS and RRaaS solutions, customers can choose to replicate their data and applications at any one of Webair’s international locations, including NYC, Los Angeles, Montreal and Amsterdam.

With pre-planned, automated failover and failback between production and recovery sites, users can achieve synchronous 15-minute RPO and one-hour RTO. Additionally, Webair’s BaaS offering provides an optional capability allowing customers to spin-up backups for DR purposes on-demand.

“The rising cost of downtime and growing threat of cyber-attacks showcase the vulnerability of today’s enterprises as well as their need for comprehensive and reliable DR solutions,” says said Tech Data corporate VP, strategy, transformation, and global vendor management Michael Urban, who is also responsible for the company’s global cloud strategy. “The addition of Webair’s DRaaS and Ransomware Recovery services to the StreamOne Enterprise Solutions cloud marketplace provides our resellers the opportunity to offer customers a renewed sense of confidence through DR solutions that encompass not only VM replication, but also the entire production environment and network.“
