Cohesity and Lenovo expand partnership to strengthen cyber resilience and simplify data management
Building on their global reselling relationship , established in 2021 , Cohesity and Lenovo have now teamed up to deliver pretested and certified solutions bringing Cohesity ’ s modern data security and management platform on Lenovo ’ s ThinkSystem servers . The expanded partnership delivers validated solutions designed to protect enterprise data from on-premises to the cloud and address three of today ’ s highest-priority business issues – security , cloud , and data management .
“ Protecting critical data and extracting business value from it poses significant challenges for enterprises . Legacy approaches to data security and data management with piecemeal solutions lead to operational complexity and cyber exposure while adding costs and compliance risks ,” said Gregg Petersen , Regional Director Middle East and Africa , Cohesity . “ Our expanded partnership with Lenovo brings together two industry leaders to offer our customers a simple and seamless experience . The partnership also enables customers to confidently strengthen their cyber resilience by protecting and , if necessary , rapidly recovering business-critical data wherever it resides from on-prem , hybrid , multi-cloud , and edge environments .”
Organisations adopting these certified solutions will get access to Cohesity ’ s data security and management platform for a comprehensive range of services like backup and recovery , disaster recovery , file and object services , dev / test , and data compliance , security , and analytics – helping to reduce complexity and costs of operations , while enhancing business continuity and cyber resilience .
Customers and partners can also choose between the Intel and AMD-based servers offered by Lenovo , including the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 48TB / 96TB and SR645 24TB / 36TB to meet their broad range of technical and budgetary requirements . This makes Lenovo the only Cohesity Certified Platform Partner that covers both processor architectures . p
