Lanamark Partners Up With South Africa’s First Distribution

Lanamark today announced a partnership with First Distribution, IBM’s largest distributor in Africa.

First Distribution is a value-added distributor with a focus on data centre and virtulisation solutions. The partnership will enable VARs, system integrators and consultants working with First Distribution to use Lanamark Suite to design and deliver desktop virtualisation, server virtualisation and storage solutions to enterprises in South Africa.

Lanamark Suite enables VARs, system integrators and consultants to accelerate design and delivery of cross-vendor virtualisation solutions to enterprises looking to virtualise applications, desktops and servers. Solution providers can gather vital information about enterprise environments, analyse desktops, servers and storage to identify most suitable candidates for virtualisation, and then design optimal end-to-end virtualisation solutions. Once virtualisation solutions are implemented, solution providers can continue profiling physical and virtual infrastructure to identify further optimization and virtualisation opportunities.
