New Head of cloud business for EMEA and APAC for Iland
iland, an enterprise cloud hosting provider, with data centres in the U.S., U.K. and Singapore, offering global cloud hosting and disaster recovery. Has appointed William Rabie as head of cloud business for EMEA and APAC.
iland’s claim is that anyone–regardless of expertise, location or business objective–can experience the benefits of a hassle-free cloud. From scaling production workloads, to supporting testing and development, to disaster recovery.
The company has been recognised as VMware’s Service Provider Partner of the Year, Global and Americas; is part of the Cisco Cloud Managed Service Provider Program for IaaS and DRaaS; and partners with other industry leaders including Zerto and Veeam.
As companies continue to turn to cloud for scalability, agility and cost benefits, they must also address key issues associated with data sovereignty, compliance, transparency, resource management and business continuity. This is especially true as cloud environments expand globally.
In his new role, Rabie will help drive iland’s strategy to address the evolving needs of its growing enterprise cloud and disaster recovery customer base throughout EMEA and APAC.
Scott Sparvero, co-founder and CEO of iland said. “Companies across EMEA and APAC have unique IT requirements that often complicate cloud adoption and limit return on investment, even before we opened our first regional data centre in London in 2008, we had met with each customer to understand their diverse needs and ensure that we could deliver enterprise cloud services that fuel both local and global cloud initiatives. William’s proven leadership and expertise will bring new opportunities for iland and its customers, and we welcome him to the team as we continue to expand our services based on customer demands.”
William Rabie, said “It’s invigorating to join a company with such passion for its customers and taking on top industry challenges. I look forward to the road ahead.”
Rabie has 20 years of IT services experience spending a decade in the technology services industry, with some of the largest names in the global IT and cloud space, including CenturyLink, NetSuite and Oracle. Back in Q1 2014 a Forrester report on -Recovery-As-A-Service Providers, referred to iland as “the dark horse champion” . In the research firm’s evaluation, iland received the highest scores possible for its core DRaaS offerings, recovery objective capabilities, platform and application support, data resiliency and risk mitigation, security, value proposition and vision, as well as pricing, service levels and contract terms.
