Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ:ANY), a containerization, virtualization
and data management solutions provider, today announced it has
partnered with Entisys Solutions and it’s Southern California
division, Agile360, a top-tier consultancy and integrator of
virtualization solutions that are also certified as a premier
solutions provider of VMWare, Microsoft, and Citrix products among
many other key technology vendors. Through this new
partnership Entisys will serve as a Certified Value-Added Reseller
(VAR), as well as provide installation, integration and technical
consulting services for Sphere 3D’s V3 virtual workspace
infrastructure solutions.
“Sphere 3D has compelling virtualization offerings that provide
new levels of functionality for businesses of all sizes looking to
migrate physical desktop and legacy applications to modern IT
virtual environments,” said Michael Strohl, CEO and President at
Entisys Solutions and its Southern California division, Agile360.
“We are looking forward to helping our customers get up and running
with Sphere 3D’s V3 virtualization family, so that they can
immediately take advantage of its unique, value-add capabilities,
like their scale-out and scale-up appliance architecture and
workload optimized approach to virtualization,” said Matt General,
Vice President and CTO of Entisys Solutions and Agile360.
“Our recently-launched, next-generation V3 virtual
application and desktop solutions make modernized IT
infrastructure accessible to every company, no matter how large or
small, and are a key part of our strategy to deliver a complete
cloud solution - private, public and hybrid,” said Eric Kelly, CEO
Sphere 3D. “Our unique approach to the delivery of virtual
desktops, containerized applications and hybrid cloud storage,
coupled with the Entisys team’s exceptional skills and end-to-end
sales and service capabilities, gives customers a clear path to
success.”
Sphere 3D has created a portfolio of vertically-integrated
solutions that address the needs of organizations of all sizes
looking to move from the physical environment to a virtual
infrastructure. The recently-announced V3 virtual workspace
families provide unmatched flexibility for organizations that have
distributed workforces and require secure, easy data access and
simplified management of virtual desktops and applications.
The V3 families leverage and combine storage, server and
virtualization services. They come pre-provisioned with Sphere 3D’s
Desktop Cloud Orchestrator™ (“DCO”) software to enable users to
quickly deploy and easily manage their infrastructure. The V3
product portfolio is segmented into three categories: V3 Smart
Nodes for large, centralized enterprises; V3 End User Computing
(EUC) Nodes for decentralized and Remote Office, Branch Office
(ROBO) locations; and V3 Flex Nodes for smaller businesses and
branch locations - even locations with as few as ten users. The new
V3 family can also be integrated with Sphere 3D’s Glassware 2.0™
containerization technology as well as the Snap family of private,
public or hybrid cloud storage solutions, delivering complete cloud
capabilities for end user computing needs. Additional details can
