ENGLEWOOD, Colo., March 17 -- The Enterprise Computing Solutions (ECS) business of Arrow Electronics Inc.

Partners receive educational sales materials about virtualization challenges and solutions; onsite sales and technical training; personalized sales coaching; and marketing support, among other program services.
In addition, partners gain certification to resell virtualization software that complement NetApp® environments, such as VMware, distributed through Arrow subsidiary Alternative Technology Inc. NetApp virtualization accreditation is also available for partners that are seeking to increase profits by offering storage virtualization solutions.
"A key benefit that Arrow ECS offers partners is access to more than 75 complementary hardware, software and storage products across our business," said Sean Kerins, vice president of Arrow ECS' Storage Group. "We are pleased to connect NetApp partners with VMware and other software in our portfolio to address growing demand for virtualization solutions."
