On the heels of significant growth in EMEA in 2020, CloudBolt continues its international expansion to help enterprises anywhere in the world with their hybrid cloud challenges

NORTH BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CloudBolt Software, the enterprise cloud management platform leader, today announced that Robert Pakai, a career-long infrastructure software and SaaS professional, has joined the company as its new Vice President of Sales for Asia-Pacific (APAC). Based in Melbourne, Australia, Robert will integrate with an already dynamic team of cloud and IT automation professionals ‒ as well as partners like NEC Australia, Advent One, Cap Gemini and many others ‒ to drive new business growth, scale an ever-growing customer base, and help expand CloudBolt’s channel program in the APAC market.

In APAC and throughout the rest of the world, CloudBolt Industry Insights research indicates that the struggle with hybrid cloud is not only real, it’s global. 56% of IT leaders believe their self-service IT has too much friction and isn’t simple enough for developers to utilize effectively; 76% are still custom-coding at least a quarter of their integrations; and 78% say they have limited visibility into who is provisioning what, where to optimize costs or how to remediate security problems.

Robert is well positioned to help APAC enterprises tackle these challenges. With over 20 years of IT industry experience in the Asia-Pacific region, he led sales for SailPoint, helped grow SecureAuth’s Australian and New Zealand businesses from the ground up, and worked in numerous sales and technology leadership positions at VMWare, BMC Software, Quest Software, National Australia Bank, and Hewlett Packard.

“As APAC organizations continue to aggressively adopt hybrid cloud, Robert’s in-depth knowledge of and experience with the area’s unique challenges will be pivotal in developing our channel-first go-to-market strategy for the APAC sphere,” said Nick Mansour, chief revenue officer, CloudBolt. “As we cement CloudBolt as the global cloud management leader in North America, EMEA, and now APAC, I look forward to Robert’s leadership in growing an already expanded customer base and opening new revenue streams for us across the sector.”

CloudBolt has experienced historic growth and geo expansion over the last year. With nearly 30% of its customers now located outside the US, the company has added multiple industry leaders to its global executive team. CloudBolt’s burgeoning APAC presence has also deepened significantly, establishing key functions to support a growing enterprise customer base, including sales, engineering, development, professional services, and support. The addition of Pakai will greatly enhance operations and partnerships in this vital region he proudly calls home.

“I am very excited to be joining the team at CloudBolt Software,” said Pakai. “CloudBolt is on the forefront of solving many challenges organizations face throughout their digital transformation journey, such as simplifying hybrid cloud management, managing cloud costs, ensuring robust security and enabling seamless developer experiences. I am thrilled to be joining this strategic function and I can’t wait to contribute to CloudBolt’s mission in one of the world’s most promising markets.”

SafeAI accelerates the adoption of off-road autonomy with first comprehensive, safety certifiable operating platform designed specifically for heavy equipment

MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SafeAI, a global leader in autonomous heavy equipment, today announced the release of the SafeAI Autonomous Framework (SAF), the first operating system built specifically for autonomous heavy equipment. With the SAF, companies can leverage both SafeAI’s trusted infrastructure and industry expertise to accelerate their autonomous application development and create safer, more productive job sites faster than ever.

Off-road heavy industries know they need to deploy autonomous solutions to remain competitive. However, many do not have the time, resources or in-house expertise to build the solutions they need from the ground up. SafeAI’s new operating system, the SAF, enables companies across the heavy industry sector to overcome these challenges. The SAF provides proven, production-ready infrastructure to help companies fast track their application development and accelerate their transition to autonomy.

The SAF is the world’s first comprehensive, safety certifiable operating system purpose-built for heavy industry applications of autonomy. It’s designed with the capabilities required for the development and deployment of autonomous applications, including high portability and reliability to ensure ease of use and functionality. Written in accordance with both MISRA (C:2021 and C++:2008) and AUTOSAR coding standards, the SAF can easily support various compilers and OS, and can be utilized in embedded and real-time environments. With the SAF, SafeAI lowers barriers—both technological and resource-related—to autonomy, enabling companies to save up to four years of development time and the millions of dollars it would take to build their own operating systems.

“We’ve proven the impact autonomous solutions can have for industries like construction and mining, and we know this is the direction the industry is heading,” said Bibhrajit Halder, founder & CEO of SafeAI. “But not every company has the resources, bandwidth and expertise to deploy autonomy as quickly as they’d like—and that’s where the SAF comes in. In the same way that operating systems have propelled development in industries like on-road autonomy and unmanned aviation, SAF will shave years off development timelines to move this industry forward in a meaningful way.”

With the release of the SAF, SafeAI will further advance the adoption of autonomy across off-road industries like construction and mining. These sectors have long navigated labor shortages and rampant project delays; and while autonomy is poised to help alleviate these challenges, companies face high, and often prohibitive, cost and technical barriers to entry. The SAF directly addresses these challenges and will move the industry forward several years by providing a ready-made foundation that empowers companies to jumpstart the development of their own autonomous applications and reap the benefits sooner.

The release of this industry-first platform follows a year of significant growth for SafeAI as the company continues its mission of accelerating off-road deployment of autonomous technology. Earlier this year, SafeAI announced its expansion into Australia and Canada, two of the world’s largest mining markets. This year, the company also announced $21 million in Series A funding to accelerate its research and development efforts and spur global growth.

Blacks also have great ideas. A4BET® can mean all for better equality today. This is one example of what A4BET® represents. Product is worth more than talent. A4BET® is both. Any entity monetizing A4BET® regardless of country, industry, language or platform will immediately increase their bottomline.”

The word alphabet is defined as a collection of letters that represent the English language. An “alpha bet” means investment above benchmark.

A4BET® founder & neologist C.C. Alexander ll concludes,

”A4BET® provides a perpetual platform to always keep things simple, memorable and worth people’s time. No one was ever bored into buying anything. People never pay real attention to marketing; but they’ll always pay attention to interesting. A4BET® is interesting.”

The company now offers the widest range of data storage management and network transfer software in the industry, with a strengthened focus on safety- and mission-critical data.

HELSINKI, Sept. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tuxera, the world-leading storage software and networking technology company, has signed an agreement to acquire HCC Embedded, the Hungarian developer of embedded file systems, flash management, and network data transfer software. HCC Embedded will officially operate as Tuxera Hungary Kft. Tuxera now offers the most comprehensive range of software and services for managing data as it is stored, used, and moved in and between embedded systems. The acquisition deepens Tuxera’s commitment to deliver reliable data management solutions in a world increasingly fueled and vitalized by data.

Rising global data use demands secure management solutions

The International Data Corporation (IDC) predicts that the global data demand will grow to an estimated 175 zettabytes (ZB) by 2025.¹ Keeping up with the storage needs driven by this global data demand will require over 22 ZB of storage capacity across all media types. Much of this data will be generated by embedded devices and transported through complex and demanding network protocols.

Leading the way in data management solutions

Tuxera develops fail-safe, high-performance software for managing data, with roots stretching back to 1983. The company’s solutions have shipped in billions of consumer devices and vehicles to date. Tuxera develops proprietary implementations of industry-standard file systems such as FAT, exFAT, and NTFS, as well as its own range of proprietary embedded file systems, flash management software, and network storage solutions. In 2021, Tuxera’s storage-industry leadership was recognized by CRN on its annual Storage 100 list of the most innovative providers of storage technology used in enterprise deployments.

“Joining forces with HCC Embedded is a great next step for us in strengthening our expertise in embedded data storage solutions and expanding our offering even more towards deeply embedded systems using real-time operating systems and micro-controllers. With the networking and middleware components of HCC Embedded, we’re able to provide a more comprehensive portfolio of solutions spanning the entire lifecycle of data management. Expanding our team will also allow us to more effectively provide engineering services in Central Europe,” says Tuukka Ahoniemi, CEO of Tuxera.

“For the past 20 years at HCC Embedded, we have worked to provide ever-higher quality embedded software components and related services to customers that value quality and reliability. By joining Tuxera, a company of similar aims and values for its customers, partners, and employees, I’m now more confident than ever that we can accelerate our mission to provide quality embedded software to fulfill tomorrow’s needs for secure and safe products,” says Dave Hughes, CEO, HCC Embedded.
