James Wright stories

{ "

James Wright is an experienced professional known for his significant contributions to the technology sector, particularly in cloud storage and data management. He was recently appointed as the Senior Director for APAC and Japan at Cloudian, where he is responsible for enhancing the company's presence in the rapidly growing Asian markets through increased partner enablement.

James has been instrumental in forging important partnerships, such as the integration of Cloudian's object storage platform, HyperStore, with Microsoft SQL Server 2022. This partnership aims to provide flexible and scalable data centres, enhancing the efficiency and usability of cloud storage solutions.

In addition to his role in partnerships, James has played a key part in extending Cloudian's collaboration with AWS. Under his leadership, HyperStore achieved AWS Outposts Ready status, making Amazon S3-compatible storage available for latency-sensitive applications across various sectors.

James's strategic initiatives include brokering a multimillion-dollar deal with New Zealand's CCL to supply object storage technology for the government sector, which highlights his strength in securing high-stake contracts and expanding Cloudian's market reach.

His efforts in Australia and New Zealand are also noteworthy, with the expansion of Cloudian's partner network to include BEarena, CodeBlue, CU2 Global, and Qirx. James's strategic vision has led to distribution agreements with Exclusive Networks and NEXTGEN, bolstering Cloudian's operations in these regions.

Efficient data management and storage solutions have been a cornerstone of James's career. His contributions include integrating Cloudian's object storage with Veeam’s data management platform, enhancing ransomware protection, and ensuring HyperStore's compatibility with Kasten backup targets.

Lastly, another of James's significant achievements includes having Cloudian's HyperStore validated to work with Microsoft Azure Stack HCI. This validation brings public cloud benefits to customers' own data centres, further proving his ability to drive technological advancements and strategic growth in the cloud storage industry.
