3PAR has expanded sales in Asia through a new channel partnership with data management provider PTC System (S) Pte Ltd., based in Singapore. PTC has agreed to sell and support 3PAR Utility Storage systems to enterprise customers in Southeast Asia—including Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia—as part of a focus on delivering storage integration for utility and cloud computing datacenters. PTC was incorporated in 1991 to address data management needs for the manufacturing sector and today has evolved to provide integrated IT across multiple industries and government organizations. PTC leverages advanced storage technologies with the goal of giving customers a competitive edge.
Under the terms of this partnership, PTC has agreed to sell the complete range of 3PAR hardware and software products, including the 3PAR InServ® T-Class Storage Server with Thin Built In™, 3PAR Thin Provisioning, and 3PAR Dynamic Optimization. In addition, PTC offers customers full-scale services and support for the 3PAR Utility Storage platform as part of their complete data management and infrastructure offerings.
PTC customer SAVVIS has deployed 3PAR Utility Storage globally within its utility and virtualized computing environments. Leveraging 3PAR Utility Storage has enabled the SAVVIS platform to autonomically optimize resources allocated to each user depending on dynamic requirements. As a result, customers are only charged for what they use, when they use it, thus benefiting from a true utility services environment.
