Rancher Labs, a provider of container management software, has launched the Rancher Partner Network, a comprehensive partner program designed to expand the company’s global reach.
The program will support consultancies and systems integrators, as well as resellers and service providers worldwide, with initial partners from North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia.
Rancher’s container management platform ships with fully supported commercial distributions of Kubernetes, Docker Swarm and Mesos.
“Community interest in Rancher’s open and easy-to-use container management platform has shattered expectations, with over a million downloads and over ten million Rancher nodes launched since this year alone,” said Shannon Williams, co-founder and vice president of sales and marketing at Rancher Labs. “To help us meet demand within the enterprise, we’re partnering with leading DevOps consultancies, system integrators and service providers around the world. We’re excited and humbled by the strong interest we’ve seen from the partner community, and we’re looking forward to working with our partners to help make containers a reality for our joint customers.”
Partners benefit from a variety of sales, marketing, product, training and support programs. Additionally, members of the service provider program can take exclusive advantage of a unique pricing model specifically designed for and exclusively available to that community.
“Treeptik is building upon an extensive history of delivering cloud and Java/JEE-based solutions for European enterprises, helping customers transform all aspects of the software development process,” said Fabien Amico, founder and CTO at Rancher partner Treeptik. “We were early to recognize the significance of containers, and our team has been early pioneers of using Docker, Mesos and Kubernetes. We’re big fans of Rancher because it makes this easier than any other tool out there, and we’re excited to be a part of the company’s partner program.”
