The IT Innovation Forum is organized by ITIForums and sponsored by CRiP, the French association for IT directors and CIOs, and allows attendees to discover technological innovations in big data, cloud, energy, datacenter efficiency, mobility and more. Award winners were selected from among the solutions presented at the event by a technical program committee of enterprise IT leaders, as well as the audience of attendees, including end users, IT press and venture capitalists.

Skyera was represented at the IT Innovation Forum by Tersedia, the company's first reseller in France, which successfully showcased the skyHawk to the jury. Skyera skyHawk is a groundbreaking new storage platform that combines affordability and performance in the only viable all-Flash array to break the price barrier for mainstream enterprise storage. skyHawk's vertically integrated hardware and software solution combines the attributes of a purpose-built flash storage array, designed to maximize flash performance, with a rich feature set of storage software tools.
