Eight Wire enters growing UK cloud integration market

Wellington based Eight Wire Limited enters growing UK cloud integration market with Data Integrators as master reseller

Wellington, 12 May 2015 - Data Integrators has launched as the UK master reseller of Eight Wire’s data integration software, Conductor. The partnership is a valuable opportunity for both companies, set to serve a rising surge of businesses in the UK moving their operations to the cloud.

“We’re delighted,” says Eight Wire’s Phil Martin, “this is an extremely exciting time for us. The demand for a simple, cost effective data integration tool is obvious. We’re going to be working closely with Data Integrators to create huge value for customers in the UK.”

Nick Hadley of Data Integrators has an equally positive forecast for the future, “We’re excited to have been appointed Master Reseller of Conductor for the UK. I am convinced that the market here will be a great place for Conductor, and look forward to talking to UK resellers about the opportunity Conductor will provide them.”

Cloud integration is an undeniable trend worldwide. According to a 2013 Gartner poll, nearly 50% of fortune 500 companies will have a hybrid cloud of some form by 2017. It’s not surprising, cloud technology a cloud based system reduces the cost of technology infrastructure, and is extremely scalable, minimizing costs as a business grows.

Hadley says the push to the cloud is evident in the UK. “There is no question that cloud technology is starting to be widely adopted here, and Conductor makes cloud integration simple and reliable. The more I see of Conductor, the more I know there is a UK market for it.”

Although the benefits are substantial, there are still barriers to cloud migration. According to a study by Claranet on cloud computing adoption trends, 53% of UK companies cited the cost of migration as a significant drawback in moving to the cloud. This is where Conductor comes in says Martin, “Conductor automates the majority of the effort to make cloud migration quick and easy. The costs of complicated manual data management are reduced by 80%.”
