Tech Data Tackles Big Data with Sybase IQ

Distributors
Tech Data UK has added the powerful Sybase IQ system to its software portfolio which means that it can now offer SAP resellers access to an even wider range of the vendor's solutions. It is also stepping up its efforts to bring more resellers into the vendor’s PartnerEdge programme.

The addition of Sybase IQ means that Tech Data can now offers resellers access to a wide range of SAP solutions available through distribution, including SAP Business Objects, BI OnDemand, Crystal Solutions, and Afaria mobile device management via the Tech Data Software team and its dedicated SAP microsite.

Tech Data has been working with SAP to encourage more resellers to enrol on the company’s PartnerEdge programme and become SAP authorised partners. It will now be stepping up those efforts, said James Reed, Director of the Software business unit at Tech Data UK.

“With SAP Sybase IQ, resellers can expand their horizons and open up new opportunities and by engaging on the SAP PartnerEdge programme, you can tap into tremendous opportunities to take faster, more efficient and extremely scalable big data and highly optimised RDBMS solutions to the market. These are transformational technologies that give customers capabilities that have, quite simply, never before been practical or even possible. We see a good opportunities here and want to encourage more resellers to engage with us and with SAP to explore the growth potential.

“As a SAP Partner you will benefit from online training and support, access to self-paced marketing campaigns and resources via the Partner Portal and much more – and you’ll have the full support of Tech Data of course. We will be working with SAP to help partners generate business around analytics and big data – and there will be more initiatives and campaigns running throughout the year.”
