Attunity Signs Distribution Partnership Agreement with Tokyo-Based ITI

Attunity (News - Alert) Ltd., a provider of information availability software solutions, has expanded its reach in Asia with a new distribution partnership in Japan.

The company has entered into a distribution partnership agreement with Tokyo-based Insight Technology Inc. (ITI).

Officials with Attunity said that the reseller agreement provides ITI the rights to distribute the company’s data replication solutions in Japan, together with ITI’s database machine “Insight Qube”.

“The partnership with Attunity is an important and strategic one for ITI,” said Ichiro Obata, CEO at Insight Technology, Inc., in a statement.

“The key reason is Big Data. Making Big Data available is a critical need for today’s top companies in Japan and all over the world, yet accessing and managing it quickly and efficiently for analytics and disaster recovery initiatives is a persistent challenge”, said Obata.

Obata said that Attunity's high-performance database replication software addresses the big data transfer bottleneck, supports heterogeneous environments, and effectively enables collection and storage of big data to the Insight Qube data warehouse to meet business-critical initiatives.

“Japan, the third largest economy in the world, represents an outstanding opportunity for us to grow our business further with Attunity Replicate, our flagship data replication solution driving our success in the US and Europe,” stated Shimon Alon, chairman and CEO at Attunity. “Our partnership with ITI will enable Attunity to expand our customer base and diversify our geographic distribution. Using Attunity Replicate to load Insight Qube, customers will be able to realize immediate value from Big Data and improve their competitive edge,” said Alon.

Earlier in July, Attunity had announced that it has teamed up with EMC (News - Alert) to deliver a high-performance, easy-to-use big data replication solution for the EMC Greenplum Unified Analytics Platform.
