UK data centre and digital infrastructure provider Pulsant has added HPE, HA Managed Hosting and Edinburgh-based Extraordinary Data Cloud to its partner ecosystem.
The Pulsant Ecosystem launched in April 2024 and now has more than 30 connectivity, cloud and technology partners, including LINX, Megaport, Specialist Computer Centres and Zayo Europe. Pulsant says it lets UK regional organisations buy infrastructure, connectivity, cloud and specialist services through one network of partners instead of several suppliers.
HPE brings compute, storage, networking, hybrid cloud and AI infrastructure, with a focus on private and hybrid cloud and sovereign infrastructure. HA Managed Hosting is a UK managed web hosting specialist, and Extraordinary Data Cloud adds object storage and data sovereignty expertise.
Wendy Shearer, director of partnerships and ecosystems at Pulsant, said: "Businesses are navigating increasing AI adoption, data sovereignty requirements and growing cyber resilience demands." She said the ecosystem creates value on both sides, with clients gaining access to expertise across networking, cloud, security and data management, while partners can combine their capabilities to solve complex problems.
Charlie Tunley, channel and partner ecosystem director for UKIMEA at HPE, said: "Organisations are increasingly seeking secure and sovereign infrastructure platforms to support AI and data-intensive workloads." He said HPE and Pulsant together will help UK businesses access the technology and expertise they need.
Pulsant said it expects to welcome further partners in the coming months.
