CyrusOne executive to lead breakout session on using a state-of-the-art colocation provider to drive customer value and profitable growth
Dallas, TX (April 7, 2014) – Global colocation provider CyrusOne (:CONE, news) announced it will be one of the sponsoring vendors at the Ingram Micro Cloud Summit, the largest dedicated cloud services event for the global IT channel, which will take place in Hollywood, Fla., from April 7-9, at the Westin Diplomat.
Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM) is the world’s largest IT distributor and a leading cloud services aggregator and provider.

CyrusOne Vice President of Channel Sales Fred Holloway will host a breakout session about how Ingram Micro partners can utilize CyrusOne’s state-of-the-art colocation data centers to grow their businesses and attract additional customers.
“CyrusOne began our Ingram Micro relationship to sell colocation space worldwide last year and our level of participation at this year’s event is a natural extension of that symbiotic relationship,” said Holloway. “Our program enables CyrusOne’s high-quality colocation space to be offered to Ingram Micro’s channel partners along with their hardware and services solutions.
