Joint Microsoft product availability
WANdisco (LSE: WAND), the live data company for machine learning
and AI, today announces progress on the Company's strategic joint
product initiative with Microsoft which is expected to enter public
availability in Q1 2020.
Fusion Resource Provider ("FRP") is a jointly developed solution
with Microsoft which will deeply embed WANdisco's Fusion technology
into the data fabric of the Azure cloud. When generally available
the product will appear as a native Microsoft product and thereby
unleash the collective strength of the Microsoft seller
network.
The continued development and public launch of this solution is
the primary focus of the Group in H1 2020, providing significant
future revenue opportunities that are expected to reshape the
Group's growth profile. The FRP product is progressing towards
general availability at pace.
The first critical phase of customer deployment has now been
entered, the 'private preview' phase. Private preview signifies the
availability of the product to select, existing Microsoft customers
to address their data migration and data availability requirements
and to provide product feedback ahead of the revenue generating
'public preview' expected in Q1 2020.
General availability will follow this public preview, launching
the full joint go-to-market strategy and the expected inflection
point for volume and velocity of deals. A number of customers,
including one of the world's largest retailers and a global systems
integrator with over 100,000 employees have agreed to participate
in the private preview.
Once deeply embedded in Microsoft's Azure cloud, the jointly
developed solution will:
-- Act as a native Azure offering, providing the fastest and
simplest way to establish data connectivity from on-premises to
cloud storage and between cloud regions.
-- Provide seamless customer experience and appear like an Azure first party service.
-- Deliver tight integration, reducing deployment complexities
by eliminating the need for customers to plan data deployment or
accommodate networking and storage options.
-- With this embedded solution, application developers will for
the first time be able to rely upon guaranteed data availability at
scale and across any data location. This enables the acceleration
of distributed application development without fear of data loss or
data consistency issues. As such, data availability becomes part of
the fabric of application development in the cloud.
The Company expects to update the market on the progress of the
private and public preview phases ahead of the full launch of
general availability and joint go-to-market.
David Richards, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of WANdisco
commented:
"Our partnership with Microsoft has been transformative for the
Company and we are thrilled that our joint solution is now in the
final phases prior to general availability.
"It is a sign of great encouragement and pride that two of
Microsoft Azure's largest customers are engaging in the private
preview phase to be the first to gain access to this inimitable
solution.
"We look forward to working closely with Microsoft over the
coming months as our joint product becomes publicly accessible for
the first time in Q1."
