nScaled Opens UK Office to Focus on the EMEA Region

Sausalito, CA (PRWEB) January 27, 2011

nScaled announced today its expansion into the European region with the appointment of industry veteran Michael Evans as Managing Director and the opening of a local UK office. Michael joins nScaled after positions as Managing Director with LexisNexis Asia and Ruleburst EMEA (now part of Oracle).

nScaled has seen significant growth with its’ hybrid cloud data centre solutions in the USA, and counts some of the world’s leading legal, venture capital and professional service firms as existing customers. The ‘hybrid’ cloud differs from the more common ‘public’ clouds with a focus on enterprise IT systems, regulated industry segments and includes both on and off-premise components and software. Importantly for the region, the solution does not contravene European data protection laws and regulations.

Along with the expansion into the EMEA region, the company announced the successful implementation of its solution for UK legal firm Leigh Day and Co, one of the UK’s leading clinical negligence, personal injury, human rights and employment law firms. Through using the nScaled London data centre, Leigh Day and Co has upgraded their backup and disaster recovery solution.

“nScaled is a company in the right place, with the right solution at the right time,” said Michael Evans “Organisations with confidential data and traditional IT systems are as interested in leveraging cloud services as web development teams have been with public cloud services such as Amazon Web Services. nScaled has managed to create a best of breed solution which provides market leading levels of security, is scalable and yet highly cost effective. Its existing client base is a testament to the strength of the offering and its potential within the EMEA region.”

“I am pleased to note the commitment of nScaled to the local market. “stated James Harrison, Head of IT of Leigh Day & Co. “The nScaled solution represents a long term strategic partnership for our firm and having local support is an important part of this relationship.”

Business drivers of explosive data growth, virtualization and cloud computing have created the perfect storm for the move to cloud services. Web applications have led the way with rapid and easy provisioning in public clouds. Conventional IT environments with confidential data subject to regulation and privacy laws represent the next wave of adoption, a far larger market opportunity, and one where nScaled is focused. The growth of hybrid cloud solutions was highlighted by Gartner in its recent top 10 Strategic Technologies for 2011.

The EMEA office will be located at 79 Long Acre, Covent Garden, London, WC2E9NG and sales or partnership enquiries can be directed to sales (at) nscaled (dot) com
