“Winning Channelnomics’ cloud vendor of the year is the perfect way to cap off 2016, a year of tremendous momentum and innovation for Xterity, and our partners,” said Pete Manca, president and CEO of Egenera. “We’ve seen phenomenal growth in both revenue and in the number of channel partners worldwide offering Xterity, and we’re excited to enter 2017 on such a high note.” Xterity Cloud Services combine the security and reliability of Tier 3 and Tier 3+ datacenters worldwide with enterprise-class hardware and software to deliver wholesale managed private and public cloud IaaS including bare metal, disaster recovery, backup and migration, along with 24x7x365 partner support and assigned account management. Xterity is sold exclusively through the channel and was designed from the ground up with product features and programs to make selling, deploying and managing cloud services easy and extremely profitable for partners – far more so than the major (commodity) cloud vendors.
