NetMagic, India’s leading managed IT services provider, today announced that the company’s virtual data center and remote infrastructure management (RIM) services are now available to North American enterprises. Additionally, NetMagic today announced the appointment of Sandip Gupta to President and a $20 million round of funding. (See today’s related release entitled, “Managed IT Services Provider NetMagic Secures $20 Million Investment”).
For more than ten years, NetMagic has been at the forefront in delivering mission-critical managed services including both data center and managed hosting services in India supporting more than 500 companies. NetMagic’s world-class data centers located in Mumbai, Bangalore and Silicon Valley, coupled with its 24x7 NOCs, give enterprises a cost-efficient way to extend their data center operations and deliver SLAs at an affordable costs.
Enterprises have increasingly become more complex and distributed with multiple locations, branch offices, telecommuters and third parties. Because access to business applications 24x7 is critical for maintaining business continuity, the data center becomes the lifeline of the corporate enterprise. If not managed properly, this can cause down time, loss of revenue and loss of intellectual property. As a result, CIOs and senior IT decision makers are faced with the daunting task of ensuring availability and security of business data around the clock, as well as increased risks associated with viruses, malicious attacks and other vulnerabilities. Outsourcing data center management has become essential for businesses needing to reduce overhead, increase operational efficiencies and gain a competitive edge.
“The data center is often the heartbeat of enterprises making them mission critical for businesses,” said Sharad Sanghi, CEO, NetMagic. “For a decade we have worked with blue chip companies in India. Building upon the company’s legacy, our expansion in North America highlights our commitment to providing world-class managed services solutions to meet our customers’ deployment and operation of business critical applications. We are excited about Sandip coming on board to expand our international operations. His knowledge and experience of the service provider and data center market will help us accelerate our growth globally.”
According to Sandip Gupta, “Effective infrastructure monitoring and management is becoming a key differentiator in determining whether an enterprise can effectively leverage their technology infrastructure toward generating business revenues. NetMagic’s expansion in North America demonstrates the company’s commitment to supporting global customers. NetMagic is in a unique spot to be the provider of choice for clients with mission-critical hosting environments that require efficient monitoring and management of their technology infrastructure. I am pleased to join NetMagic at a time when the company is experiencing tremendous growth.”
Sandip Gupta brings over 17 years of experience managing and growing global high-tech product and service businesses. Before joining NetMagic, Mr. Gupta was president and CEO of Ensim Corporation, a provider of management software for unified communications and collaboration infrastructure. At Ensim, Mr. Gupta developed long-term relationships with over 200 global service providers. Earlier in his career, Mr. Gupta held senior positions at Indus Consultancy Services and Tata Consultancy Services.
