TIM Distributing Cohesity Hyperconverged Secondary Storage

Cohesity, Inc., in hyperconverged secondary storage, extended its partnership with TIM AG and signed the VAD as distributor for the DACH region.

As a result of the success in Switzerland, where the two companies have been working together since Autumn 2017, the agreement has been expanded to include Germany and Austria.

TIM will sell Cohesity’s hyperconverged storage solutions to its network of resellers and system integrators in DACH. Cohesity consolidates secondary storage silos onto a hyperconverged, web-scale data platform that spans both private and public clouds.

“The market potential for our unique platform approach with native cloud integration is immense. TIM is a strong distribution partner that will open up new sales possibilities for us thanks to its network and expertise“, said Johannes Kunz, senior director channel sales EMEA, Cohesity. “We have already experienced initial success in Switzerland and are looking forward to being able to demonstrate the advantages of our hyperconverged data platform to even more resellers and customers in Central Europe.“

“With Cohesity, we are supplementing our data centre portfolio with a hyperconverged web-scale platform for backup, archiving, data analytics and test/dev workloads. The portfolio provides system integrator partners with a SLA-based architecture which allows end customers to dramatically reduce their operational overhead and improve operational reliability“, said Jörg Eilenstein, COO, TIM. “The main focus of our partnership with Cohesity lies on training and educating resellers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as project development and support.“
