EnterpriseDB has announced that it has signed a distribution agreement with TechAccess Cloud for the Middle East and Africa region. “Under the vision of ‘the customer always comes first’, the partnership enables TAC to go to market with EDB’s open-source strategy, supporting customers and partners in their digital transformation journey. The dynamic pressures of the business landscape mean that digital transformation facilitated by the right tools and technology is critical. EDB and TAC share the belief that open-source strategies and solutions such as Postgres offer substantial advantages across industries, delivering impressive returns on investment compared to legacy solutions,” the company said.
“TAC has established itself as a true enterprise-class Super-VAD and enabler of digital transformation in the MEA region, and EDB is honoured to partner with such an accomplished and reputed partner. EDB has emerged as one of the leading contributors to Postgres, the most loved and used database by developers. Like EnterpriseDB, TAC believes in prioritizing a customer’s needs and helping accelerate their innovation. Open-source technologies like Postgres continue to outperform and outpace legacy systems, addressing customers’ digital transformation requirements and pain points across sectors,” said Karim Assem, Regional Sales Manager, EnterpriseDB.
As part of its go-to-market strategy, EDB said it is committed to promoting the adoption of open-source tools, as they offer customers significant benefits over speciality and legacy systems. “EDB also stands out for its enterprise-grade software and services, distributed Postgres, extremely high availability, and support for multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments,” said the company.
In a recent poll with over 72,000 responses, Postgres emerged as the most loved, and most wanted database in the world. EDB empowers Postgres to be deployed everywhere, whether running in Kubernetes, any major public cloud, or a hybrid environment. It has emerged as one of the best tools for IT teams, developers, architects, database administrators and operations professionals, offering total access to data.
“We are excited to partner with EDB – a strong proponent of open-source technology. Our partnership allows us to offer a globally proven and extremely capable open-source-powered alternative to our customers across the MEA region. TechAccess Cloud and EnterpriseDB share a common vision around prioritizing customers’ needs,” said Alfred Chrispanous, Managing Director, TechAccess Cloud.
“Existing monopolies and legacy solutions have created a situation where customers have expressed concern. Before signing EDB, we did our homework. We involved our customers, alliance & channel ecosystem partners, some of whom we have worked with for 25 years, in the decision-making process. The feedback was extremely positive, which is why we moved ahead with this partnership. By working with EDB, TAC can offer a powerful alternative that addresses MEA Channel partners, ISV’s, and Customers’ requirements in terms of features, security, stability, scalability, and of course, cost,” Alfred Chrispanous added.
