Scality’s addition of the CRO role reflects its mission to capture increasing market share in the thriving file and object storage space. Expanding growth activities worldwide, Brennan will lead sales and marketing efforts to maximise revenue with an emphasis on partners and the channel. With over 20 years of data storage leadership, Brennan will lean on his experience bringing hybrid cloud, hyperconverged, and data storage businesses into a new era to broaden Scality’s reach. During the last three years at HPE, he successfully transitioned a multi-billion dollar business from a pure-play infrastructure sale into an as-a-service model. Prior to this, he led a worldwide specialist sales organisation for VMware, focused on hyper-converged and hybrid cloud solutions. “Peter and I share an unfaltering belief that serving the channel serves the customer and, ultimately, maximises your success,” said Jerome Lecat, Scality CEO. “Scality’s growth is strong and steady, and we are primed to meet the new business realities - realities that are unequivocally calling for object storage. The stars were aligned when we secured such a high-calibre executive as Peter. I have every confidence he is the right person to take us to the next level of growth.” www.scality.com OVHcloud appoints UK Channel Sales Manager European cloud provider OVHcloud has appointed former Arrow Electronics exec Sam Harrison, as Channel Sales Manager for the UK and Northern Europe.
