Wasabi partners with Retelit to provide hot cloud storage in Italy

London. Paris. Milan. It may sound like a list of venues for fashion brands, but thanks to Wasabi’s latest expansion into Italy it’s also where you can find Wasabi hot cloud storage.

Milan, the latest addition to Wasabi’s European line-up, will be operational from the third quarter of 2024. The storage will be deployed in Avalon 3, Retilit‘s newest and most eco-friendly data centre.

“As our business surged in Europe over the last few years, Italy emerged as the next logical expansion location based on demand,” said Mark Vella, Wasabi’s Vice President of Business Development.

“By leveraging Retelit’s Avalon 3 data centre in Milan, together with Retelit’s robust infrastructure, local expertise and broad range of Italian enterprise customers, we can deliver unparalleled speed, reliability and cost-efficiency in data storage to significantly advance Italy’s digital transformation.”

Retelit Cloud platforms are certified by the Italian Cybersecurity Agency and, to give Italian firms extra reassurance, only based in Italy.

“Retelit has a long-standing reputation for delivering cutting-edge technology solutions to businesses across Italy,” said Mimmo Zappi, Retelit CCO. “That’s why we are really proud that Wasabi chose our Avalon 3 data centre in Milan to host its first-ever Italian storage region.

“At the same time our partnership with Wasabi strengthens our position as a leader in the technology infrastructure sector and enables us to provide our customers with a superior storage solution that is both cost-effective and high-performing.

“By enhancing our portfolio with Wasabi hot cloud storage, we are equipping businesses in Italy with a game-changing solution that delivers unmatched performance, scalability, and affordability for their organisations.”
