Scality, a global leader in data infrastructure software for AI-era storage at scale, today announced a revamped Scality Partner Program designed to deliver greater value and a clearer growth path to its global community of resellers and distributors.
Key program improvements include:
- A new Authorized tier: A lowered entry threshold facilitates the onboarding of new partners, with a structured progression path towards the Select and Elite tiers as skills increase and commercial engagement grows.
- Progressive tiered discounts: Partners who invest in certifications, technical upskilling and co-generation of demand benefit from a significantly more advantageous economy. The discount difference between the Authorized and Elite tiers is substantially more pronounced than before, so that investment in Scality is more profitable than a one-off transaction.
- Enhanced partner margins: Partners at every tier of the program are eligible for enhanced margins.
- Strengthened deal protection: Opportunity registration has been simplified and comes with extended protection.
The program also includes a strengthened training catalog, with pathways for each partner profile:
- Scality Certified Architect (SCA): In-depth technical training on RING and ARTESCA. Offered in local languages (English, French, German, and Spanish) in-person and on-demand every quarter. SCA-certified partners are authorized to qualify client needs and architect the most complex deployments.
- Scality Sales Certified: Sales training to position and sell ARTESCA for cyber-resilience, secondary storage, and regulatory compliance use cases.
- ARTESCA Delivery Training: Technical implementation training for deployment teams.
- Scality ADI Certification Pathway: With the launch of ADI, Scality is rolling out a new training pathway dedicated to autonomous data infrastructure for AI.
Scality’s technology is 100 percent software-defined. That gives partners the flexibility to choose the configurations and hardware vendors that best suit each customer.
