WANdisco launches OEM sales partnership with IBM
-- WANdisco Fusion to be embedded as a standard component in select IBM software solutions
-- Extended partnership significantly expands Fusion's addressable market and sales channel with joint development expected
WANdisco (LSE: WAND) has entered into a non-exclusive OEM ('Original Equipment Manufacturer') sales agreement with IBM under which IBM intends to sell WANdisco's Fusion data replication product.
Fusion will be sold as a standard IBM-branded component of IBM storage and analytics products, covering Hadoop or non-Hadoop, and on-premise or cloud environments. In addition, IBM will have access to the Fusion Software Development Kit ('SDK') to create new additions to IBM solutions, enabling self-sufficiency in extending the use of Fusion. This agreement represents a substantial increase in our addressable market and a significant extension of our channel strategy.
Ritika Gunnar, VP, IBM Big Data and Analytics, commented on the importance of data replication for IBM's big data and cloud strategy during a March 2016 interview with Silicon Angle*: "IBM's platform is about all insight on all data, not only on-premise but also in the cloud, where the majority of data is being generated and where the majority of the growth is. With WANdisco Fusion we can activate all data - whether it's on premise, in the cloud or in multiple Hadoop distributions - and ensure it's continuously available everywhere customers want to use it."
WANdisco will receive a royalty on the Fusion component of IBM sales. Whilst we expect that revenues will begin to flow during the second half of this year, we will provide further guidance once product launches have taken place and initial customer uptake has been evaluated.
Joint development work, funded by IBM, will complete the integration of Fusion with the IBM platform over the coming months. The impact upon WANdisco's operating costs, net of IBM's funding contribution, is expected to be minimal in the short term.
David Richards, WANdisco Chief Executive, comments:
"The extension of our IBM partnership into an OEM firmly embeds Fusion into IBM's offerings. We now will benefit from IBM's global sales reach and economies of scale in delivering our product.
This agreement marks a significant milestone in our emergence as a critical part of cloud data and storage infrastructure. Whilst our initial focus is on IBM's big data and cloud offerings, our agreement also enables IBM to use Fusion, over time, to replicate data across additional applications requiring continuous data. It is a strong endorsement of WANdisco's unique technology, from the world's largest big data and cloud company."
