Adexis achieved NetApp's highest professional services partner status -- Authorized Professional Service Partner (APSP). "This designation means we have the experience, resources and credentials that customers can trust when it comes to providing professional services for NetApp," said Adexis Vice President of Operations and Storage Consulting Nick Cellentani. NetApp creates innovative storage and data management solutions that accelerate business breakthroughs and achieve cost efficiency.

"It represents another major hallmark in our expanding partnership with NetApp," Cellentani added. "Now, we are choosing to commemorate that achievement by giving some significant tools to the business community."

A shared Adexis and NetApp priority is to bring the best the industry has to offer in education and technology. Because businesses can reap positive financial and environmental impact by managing and containing data via techniques like deduplication and virtualization, Adexis and NetApp are taking a role in distributing valuable information.

"We are excited to team with Adexis on this effort," said NetApp Channel Development Manager, Tony Galieti. "In today's economy, companies have an urgent need to trim costs and be efficient wherever they can. Data storage strategies can make a true difference - the potential for savings is tremendous."
