Rubrik informs Techzine about a new partner program, the so-called Rubrik Technology Alliance Program (TAP). TAP brings together tech companies that expand the functionality of Rubrik’s Cloud Data Management, Polaris SaaS platform and Datos IO. A large number of IT parties are already working with Rubrik.

SAP, VMware, Amazon Web Services, Cisco, Fortinet, Google Cloud, Lenovo, Microsoft, Nutanix and Pure Storage are already part of the partner program. They were selected on the basis of technological innovation, market leadership and compliance with the Rubrik values. TAP imposes a number of requirements on participants, on the basis of which they are awarded the Foundation, Solution or Strategic level. Foundation is the lowest level, Strategic the highest.

Possibilities

One of the biggest advantages of participating in the partner program is access to Rubrik’s technical resources and APIs. The technical integrations that can be developed as a result, lead to a joint solution. In addition, Rubrik points to access to joint marketing offers and sales programmes to raise awareness and create new opportunities for the integrated solution. Affiliates will also have access to Rubrik’s product information, training and support team. As a result, solutions must be easy to build and validate.

Rubrik sees the new programme primarily as the next step in building a rich ecosystem. TAP therefore adds technology integration partners to Rubrik’s partner business model.

Expansion

During this period, Rubrik is working hard to ensure that his technology and the company continue to grow. In mid-January, for example, it raised some EUR 229 million during an investment round, bringing the valuation to USD 3.3 billion. At the time, the company indicated that it intended to use the investments for general business purposes, future innovation and the launch of important products by 2019. These products will respond to the transition to the public cloud and the increase in data.
