"We are pleased to welcome Bocada as the newest member of the VMware TAP program," said Sheryl Sage, Director, Alliance Programs, VMware.  "The VMware TAP program offers companies like Bocada the tools and resources they need to develop high-value solutions that meet the needs of our mutual customers."

"Being a member of VMware's Technology Alliance Program helps ensure that we work effectively together to efficiently manage  backup and recovery in virtual environments," said Nancy Hurley, Bocada CEO.  "Customers continuously cite that lack of visibility into VM data protection results is a key operational metric, and this can delay roll out of VMs in some environments. Using Bocada Vision in conjunction with VMware vCenter helps joint customers gain insight into their virtual environments to ensure VM recoverability through in-depth visibility and analysis of VM snapshots and backup activity, providing the confidence needed to continue broader VM deployment."

With more than 2,000 members worldwide, the VMware TAP program works with best-of-breed technology partners to provide them a comprehensive set of VMware technical and marketing services, support, tools and expertise to deliver enhanced value to joint customers.
