Acronis With First Cloud Data Center in Canada

Acronis International GmbH announced the availability of a new Cloud Data Center in Vancouver, Canada.

Launched in conjunction with cloud solutions partner Robson Communications Inc., the data center gives service provider partners access to a range of cyber protection solutions upon which they can build new services, while delivering faster access, constant data availability, and data sovereignty to their clients.

The network of Cloud Data Centers already includes locations in the US, UK, Switzerland, France, Germany, Japan, Australia, and Singapore. With the new data center in Vancouver, Canadian service providers have a location in-country where they can store business-critical data for their clients. They’ll also benefit from the combined service of data management from Robson and the range of managed cloud solutions and cyber protection solutions available via the Acronis Cyber Cloud platform.

“We pride ourselves on working with companies that are uniquely positioned to bring data integrity, data security, and BC to our customers who are already benefiting from our managed cloud solutions.” said Martin Robson, president and CEO, Robson. “The new Acronis Cloud Data Center will offer easy, efficient, secure cyber protection solutions that keep client data safe, while also powering their organization’s performance.“

Among the solutions available through the data center is Acronis Cyber Protect, an integration of backup, DR, next-gen antimalware, cybersecurity, and endpoint management tools – all managed via a single pane of glass.

Cyber Protect is VB100 certified and its capabilities and integrations earned Acronis Cyber Protect the 2020 New Product Innovation Award for Data Protection from Frost & Sullivan, Inc.

All of Acronis solutions are designed to address the five vectors of Cyber Protection, ensuring the safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security (SAPAS) of an organization’s data, applications, and systems.

In the same way, Cloud Data Centers are designed to deliver high levels of data availability, security, and safety – with each facility featuring state-of-the-art equipment as well as the best operational and security controls.

Acronis VP and GM, Americas, Pat Hurley, said: “It was an easy decision to partner with one of the top trusted resellers in Canada, Robson Communications Inc., to bring a new Acronis Cloud Data Center to Vancouver. It is important for Acronis to expand our footprint and increase availability of our innovative cyber protection solutions to service providers and their partners.
