‘This Mandiant acquisition is the largest acquisition [Google Cloud CEO] Thomas Kurian’s ever made. It’s a stake in the ground about the most important part of this cloud journey for most organizations, which is security first,’ says SADA CEO Tony Safoian in an interview with CRN.
Give me your thoughts on why SADA is betting on Google Cloud and Thomas Kurian?
This Mandiant acquisition is the largest acquisition Thomas Kurian has ever made. It’s a stake in the ground about the most important part of this cloud journey for most organizations, which is security first.
The ongoing management required from threats in general, continuously are becoming more complex year after year. So Google continues to invest in the right areas.
Also Google continues to make major investments in channel, in programs, and services.
Google is leading with partner-led services in almost every account. Our services organization has grown tremendously as a result, including a hybrid delivery model, growing multi-nationally—we now have 100 people in India, that team will grow to 300 by the end of the year. So we’re going to be able to deliver globally at a scale which was previously only available to the global systems integrators in the past.
We’re going to do it now in a more specialized way with Google that makes a faster impact for our customers which we’re very proud of.
