The awards, which recognise partners for “exceptional revenue growth, blazing trails with innovative solutions and pioneering offerings with our customers,” among other criteria. Ron Dunstan, general manager of sales at Atturra, claimed it winning APJ Partner of the Year was the culmination of “intense collaboration between Atturra and Pure Storage over many years”. “Our partnership is founded on the shared goal of bringing unmatched performance, simplicity, and value to our customers to meet their business and sustainability goals,” he said. Adam Rosham, director of channel sales for Australia and New Zealand at Pure Storage, added that the technology services provider faced “stiff competition” for its win.
