Datacore Hires Manager

SYDNEY -- DataCore Software, the leading provider of hardware independent, storage virtualization SAN solutions, today announced the appointment of Peter Kensey as country manager for Australia. Kensey will work closely with solution providers, many of whom have enjoyed success with VMware and Citrix virtualization offerings, to develop strong, complementary storage virtualization offerings and competencies with DataCore software - the foundation for Total Enterprise Virtualization. Now located in Sydney and Melbourne, DataCore intends to fuel expansion in Australia by helping its solution provider network win even more opportunities and growing its solution provider network across Australia based upon that success.

There are many Australian value-added resellers, consultants and other solution providers who have come to understand through their experience with VMware that hardware independent, virtualization software gives end users tremendous utilization, flexibility, and savings in the management, growth and purchasing of their server environment,” said Kensey. “They are also keenly aware of what being able to offer those benefits to their customers has meant to their businesses. Our objective is to help them take the next step to Total Enterprise Virtualization with DataCore SAN storage virtualization, which does for storage what VMware and others have done for the server environment.”

“Peter is a great addition to the team,” commented David Bull, technical sales director, DataCore Australia. “He knows the channel well and will be instrumental in getting our message across to new partners while at the same time assuring that we are available to help all partners in customer accounts and in closing opportunities.”
