Trigence Partners with AsiaFootPrint to Accelerate
Growth in Asia Pacific Region
Application Virtualization Leader Expands International Operations with New Agreement
Jersey City, NJ and Ottawa, ON – May 15 2007 – Trigence, the leader in virtualization at the application level, today announced a strategic partnership with AsiaFootPrint, to begin the expansion of Trigence’s channel network across the Asia Pacific region. The agreement extends Trigence’s global reach and ensures that Trigence’s Asia Pacific customers will receive comprehensive local technical support for their Trigence AE software implementations.
AsiaFootPrint specializes in assisting U.S. and European-based technology companies to quickly, easily and credibly establish a sales, distribution and technical support network across Asia and the Pacific Rim. Leveraging their broad experience across the region, AsiaFootPrint enlists experienced start-up management practitioners with on the ground sales resources and skilled engineering staff to expedite overseas growth for its strategic partners.
“With Asia and the Pacific Rim emerging as significant growth sectors in the global technology market, it was only natural for us to expand our operations there,” said David Roth, President and CEO, Trigence. “AsiaFootPrint’s ability to quickly establish an infrastructure for Trigence in Asia Pacific allows us to capitalize on the rapidly growing demand for application virtualization solutions in these markets.”
Trigence AE encapsulates and separates applications and their related dependencies from the underlying operating systems and infrastructure while dramatically driving down the costs associated with enterprise application configuration management. With Trigence, legacy and newly developed applications are virtualized by encapsulating them as single files, easing the burden of application configuration management and permitting safe, easy movement from old-to-new, same-to-same, or similar-to-similar operating systems versions while keeping the application's original dependencies intact effectively allowing applications to be treated as self contained managed objects. This is a vital component in enabling applications to be easily moved onto a utility computing environment.
“Virtualization is poised to be the largest growing software segment in the next decade,” said Craig Stockdale, Managing Director and CEO, AsiaFootPrint. “Not exclusively limited to those enterprises where legacy applications are prevalent, our company is seeing a very broad-based need for application virtualization software in the Asia Pac region. All companies are quickly discovering a need to consolidate their data centers, more effectively manage their applications -- whether server or desktop-based and control costs. Trigence AE is an optimal solution for these business and IT initiatives and we anticipate strong demand for this solution across Asia Pacific.”
“AsiaFootPrint will ensure Trigence delivers its application virtualization solution through a core group of quality channel partners across the Asia Pacific region. We will acquire and enable a strategic portfolio of highly qualified virtualization consultants, systems integrators and value-added resellers to distribute and support the Trigence AE Solution to the mainstream market across Asia,” Stockdale added.
