$9m industrial and consumer goods contract win

Manufacturing data vertical represents a new key target market  

 

 

WANdisco (LSE: WAND), the data activation platform, is pleased to announce that it has signed an initial agreement (the "Agreement") worth $9m with a global European-based industrial and consumer goods company (the "Client").  

The Agreement is a one-off migration for manufacturing process and other enterprise information management data that resides in the Client's data centres in Europe and Asia to be migrated to multiple cloud service providers.  WANdisco was chosen due to its proven ability to migrate petabyte scale data and its capability to migrate data to multiple cloud service providers.

The ability to run analytics at scale on a large amount of manufacturing process data can help companies to drive greater efficiencies and more accurately monitor processes. The manufacturing sector is increasingly producing large sets of data, making it a strategically key target market for WANdisco.  The Company is seeing an increasing number of opportunities in this vertical and as a result the Board expects manufacturing data to become a core and growing market for WANdisco going forward.  

 

David Richards, CEO and Chairman of WANdisco, commented:

 

"This is the first company to choose WANdisco's solutions to migrate manufacturing process data at scale, utilising our unique ability to seamlessly and securely migrate large scale data from on-premise platforms to the cloud.    

 

Moving data from on-premise platforms to the cloud is continuing to drive a significant pipeline of opportunities for our business. Companies across multiple industry verticals face significant challenges in successfully executing this data movement and unlocking the full capabilities of the cloud. Our unique solutions, the cloud agnostic nature of our technology and our proven experience in moving data seamlessly at scale make us well placed to continue winning market share and supporting global clients in these use cases."
