Exanet has made serious inroads into the UK market over the last 12 months, securing major contracts with organisations such as the BBC, the University of Aberdeen, the Pinewood Studio Group, Interoute, Totality GCS and Ascent Media.

Cracknell brings with him 25 years' experience handling complex data acquisition and storage delivery for companies including EMC, DEC and SGI. In his new position at Exanet, Cracknell will be responsible for delivering Exanet clustered NAS solutions into the most demanding storage environments, supporting Exanet's push into new target markets. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
