Emerson Network Power has made a reseller deal with Indian data center and IT services provider NxtGen.

NxtGen will sell and deploy Emerson’s SmartCabinet and SmartRow offerings for customers in India. NxtGen is also using Emerson’s Liebert RDU monitoring tools to manage these customer equipment centrally from its command center in Bangalore.

Sunil Khanna, president and managing director for Emerson in India, said, “Emerson Network Power has built strong partnerships in the past that have helped us become a major player in the medium and large-sized data center infrastructure market.

“In line with the market’s preparedness for rapidly deployable solutions for the data center, our focus is on improving the time-to-market. The partnership with NxtGen to deliver our Smart Solutions to businesses across India is a strong move in the direction.”

AS Rajgopal, managing director of NxtGen said, “Today most organizations’ core operations run on IT platforms placed in data centers and their availability determines major business outcomes. Also companies are increasingly becoming cost conscious not only on the initial setup of data centers but also on the ongoing costs to operate as energy prices keep increasing.

“Emerson’s Smart Solutions along with NxtGen’s OPDC services are a winning combination for our customers by providing build as you need, with high efficiency and high availability IT infrastructure.”
