CONFLUENCE 2018, a series of multi-city networking and business events, were jointly organised by Lenovo and Nutanix Technologies India, to showcase how their strategic global tie-up is benefiting client organisations across industry sectors
Lenovo and NutanixTechnologies India recently organised a multi-city conference series called Confluence 2018, highlighting the benefits of their strategic alliance. Leading CIOs and Technology Heads from Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai attended the event at their respective locations, to get an insight into the unique technology offerings of the partnership. CIOs from Mumbai attended Confluence 2018 at the Radisson Blu Resort & Spa – Alibaug.
Shivasankar K, Head of Sales, Data Centre Group (DCG), Lenovo Global Technologies India started his presentation by throwing light on the three distinct sales operations of Lenovo in the country – Lenovo servers operations; Lenovo desktop / laptop; and mobility. “Last year we separated server from PC/ laptop to bring focus into what we do,” said Shivshankar K, adding that the separation was done on a worldwide basis as the consumption of data centres had changed.
Elaborating further, he stated, “We have a range of solutions, from servers to storage to switches. Essentially from a data centre stand point we cover the gamut. While these are the building blocks for any IT solution, different customers use it differently - from the finance industry to manufacturing to research organisations and high performance computing.” Shivasankar K also shared one of Lenovo's newest developments – the relationship on the storage front with Netapp.
