The Italian Public Cloud was awarded as best VCSP (Cloud & Service Provider) at the ProPartner Summit 2024
Netalia, the independent Italian Public Cloud Service Provider, received the award of “The Best VCSP – Partner of The Year” from Veeam, a leader in backup, recovery and data management solutions that offer modern and resilient data protection. At the ProPartner Summit 2024, Netalia was recognized together with other partners who have supported their customers in implementing Veeam's modern data protection solutions in increasingly complex IT environments.
Partner since 2011, Netalia has recently acquired the status of Gold Partner of Veeam, joining a select few organizations that have achieved this significant level of partnership. With this recognition, Netalia consolidates its focus on the security of digital assets to help companies and public administrations make data protection a strategic element within their business model.
To ensure the best data protection, careful internal planning and a good knowledge of existing threats and constantly changing regulations are required. Since its foundation, Netalia has chosen to integrate compliance by design and was among the first operators in the sector to receive authorization from the National Cybersecurity Agency to process all public administration data, up to strategic data.
"The award as best VCSP is a recognition of Netalia's quality path. Our main asset is the national cloud platform, which we have also developed through the careful selection of the best market technologies. Veeam certainly includes Veeam, for years integrated among the technological components that contribute to the creation of our service portfolio", he said Federico Descalzo, Commercial Director of Netalia. "We have always used the best technologies and synergies put in place by Veeam in the context of the operational continuity of information systems. The growth of this collaboration allows us to seize new opportunities offered by technology and interpret them according to our Italian Public Cloud model".
“Netalia is a system company, a service provider interested in relating to all the actors who are part of this system, aiming to build an increasingly advantageous offer for customers,” continues Descalzo. “From this perspective, collaborations with system integrators are of particular value, with which we can best support the large enterprise segment and with all Veeam partners, an asset capable of offering territorial coverage and skills for the integration of customer systems”.
It is a non-competitive but collaborative ecosystem, where the Netalia cloud represents the enabler of integrated services, based on characteristics that enhance the proposal of data resiliency of the individual partners. In this way it is possible to bring concrete support to business continuity by creating an intermediation platform between the market and the ecosystem, capable of managing heterogeneous sources, platforms and security levels.
"This award represents a new starting point for us. The objective is to continue to grow, in terms of certifications, actions and solutions for the benefit of operational continuity. Regardless of their origin, the resilience offered by the Netalia cloud guarantees them protected and unalterable", concludes Descalzo.
"For us it is essential to be able to count on a network of valuable partners to support the market. In this case the recognition of a new Gold partner among the Cloud Service providers enriches the entire Veeam ecosystem", he states Elena Bonvicino, Manager of Channel of Veeam Italia. "Our goal is to support and stimulate new skills and the partnership with Netalia goes in this direction. Netalia has demonstrated that it has invested in Data Protection supported by Veeam, creating valuable services available to companies that ask for solutions that are resilient to new cyber attacks".
