TD SYNNEX Wins Distribution Contract for Object First, the Best Storage for Veeam

PRAGUE — September 10, 2024 —TD SYNNEX further expands its storage and backup solutions range. Through a new distribution agreement with Object First, the company offers partners on-premises storage with Ootbi (Out-of-the-Box-Immutability), which seamlessly integrates with the Veeam Data Platform and enables high-speed and immutable data backup and recovery.

TD Synnex, a leading global distributor and aggregator of solutions for the IT ecosystem, proudly announces its partnership with Object First as its official distributor for the Czech Republic.

Ootbi (Out-of-the-box Immutability) by Object First is a ransomware-proof backup storage appliance designed specifically for Veeam customers. It offers secure, simple, and powerful appliance-based backup storage with out-of-the-box immutability and zero access to root. Created by the same founders behind Veeam, its seamless integration with Veeam enables exceptionally fast data recovery, leveraging Veeam Data Platform's direct-to-object feature via the Veeam Smart Object Storage (SOS) API. This integration allows easy and rapid backup to object storage targets, delivering enhanced security, superior performance, and optimal storage efficiency.

In a world where businesses fall victim to ransomware every 11 seconds, and backups are often the target, Ootbi’s out-of-the-box immutability helps make backup data ransomware-proof.

"Ootbi is suitable for primary backups, aiding in ransomware protection thanks to backup data immutability and a secure-by-design philosophy when engineering the box; its close integration with the most widely used Veeam backup solution and on-premise implementation brings benefits not only in backup speed but also in data recovery speed," explains TD SYNNEX Business Development Manager, Michal Schiller. According to him, another advantage of Ootbi is its fast deployment, which takes 15 minutes to deploy and scale, with no security expertise required.

“We are happy to announce TD Synnex as our distributor in the Czech Republic. Their extensive expertise in the IT industry and wide network makes them the perfect partner,” said Martin Štětka, Channel Manager at Object First. “TD Synnex has the software and hardware expertise to help their partners seamlessly onboard new customers and accelerate their growth in the Czech Republic Veeam market.  Together, we are committed to delivering secure, simple, and powerful backup storage for Veeam users, keeping businesses one step ahead of ransomware threats.”
