#Egnyte announced today that moving forward, it would be using #Microsoft #Azure as its primary cloud partner. While it would continue to support other cloud vendors like market leader #AWS, it likely means that the company sees the best way to succeed inside the Azure ecosystem. In an interesting twist, instead of making the announcement last week at Microsoft’s Ignite conference, Egnyte decided to deliver the news at #Dreamforce, #Salesforce ’s massive customer conference, where it will have a booth presence this week. Egnyte has always tried to differentiate itself from the online storage crowd with a hybrid strategy that let you keep your storage in the cloud or on prem, as you prefer, happy to be the layer on top of all that. That’s an approach that’s worked well as far as it goes, but this week the company decided to take a different tack. Company CEO Vineet Jain says the change is really a response to what they are hearing from customers, and as such he expects the partnership to drive more business. “What we are finding as we go deeper into the enterprise, is that Azure is the platform of choice,” he said.
