Nutanix Signs Promark to Distribute Virtual Computing Platform in North America

Fastest Growing Infrastructure Startup in a Decade Continues to Scale Distribution Network

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 16, 2013

Nutanix, the leading provider of hyper-efficient, massively scalable and elegantly simple datacenter infrastructure solutions, today announced that it has entered into a distribution agreement with Promark Technology, an Ingram Micro company and premier value-added distributor of data storage solutions. Under the terms of the agreement, the Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform will now be available to Promark’s vast portfolio value-added resellers (VARs) in the United States through a dedicated distribution sales team.

Nutanix recently announced the Nutanix Partner Network, an end-to-end partner program designed to maximize partner productivity and profitability. By partnering with Promark, Nutanix expands its distribution network and further strengthens its 100 percent channel strategy.

Promark holds a General Services Administration (GSA) schedule and distributes solutions through a two-tier distribution channel that resellers can use to sell products to government customers even if they do not hold a GSA contract themselves. Promark also has experience helping other high-growth technology companies like Veeam scale and expand their distribution.

The Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform is a converged datacenter solution that consolidates the compute tiers and storage tiers into a single, integrated appliance eliminating the need for storage area network (SAN) or network attached storage (NAS). Nutanix’s modular building-block design scales linearly and allows companies to start with small deployments and grow incrementally into very large cluster installations whenever needed. Promark will distribute all the products that make up the Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform suite, including the new NX-1000 and NX-6000 Series as well as the flagship NX-3000 Series.

“Nutanix does more than give lip service to being a completely channel-focused company,” said Steve Kaplan, vice president of channel and strategic sales, Nutanix. “All of our sales go through the channel, and all our products, programs and marketing are created with the channel in mind. Coming hot off the heels of the Nutanix Partner Network announcement, this Promark agreement extends our reach to virtualization-focused partners looking to utilize disruptive next-generation datacenter technology to open new doors and to further enhance their position as a trusted advisor to their clients.”

“We’ve been eager to kick-off our distribution relationship with Nutanix,” said Dale Foster, general manager, Promark Technology. “The Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform is a substantially more efficient and elegant solution compared to other datacenter infrastructure offerings, which is sure to be well received by Promark’s VARs and their customers.”
