Reay: File archiving will be a huge growth area in 2009

Arc Technology has signed a distribution deal with data management software vendor Waterford Technologies.

Under the terms of the deal, Arc will supply its reseller base with Waterford’s MailMeter File Archiver suite, which includes its Smart Stubbing technology.

Brendan Nolan, chief executive of Waterford Technologies, said in a statement: “Arc has a long reputation of bringing software and hardware solutions to its reseller customer base that reduces the cost and complexity of managing IT infrastructure. This makes it an ideal partner to represent MailMeter File Archiver and bring the file archiving opportunity to the channel.”

Stuart Reay, managing director of Arc Technology, said: “Arc holds strong, well-established relationships with both leading integrators and value-added resellers serving enterprises in financial, healthcare, government and other industries.

“File archiving will be a huge growth area in 2009 and beyond, and I believe working with Waterford Technologies was the obvious choice given its large existing customer base and technological expertise.”
