This week at Cisco’s annual partner conference, General Datatech (GDT) was honored with Cisco’s Technology Excellence Partner of the Year: Service Provider, Capital Partner of the Year (South), and Global Enterprise Segment (GES) Partner of the Year (South) for its innovation, leadership and best practice as a Cisco business partner across the Americas.

GDT, a Cisco Gold Partner, announced today that it has obtained the Cisco Master Networking certification, joining numerous high-level Cisco certifications and specializations that GDT holds.

“Hybrid and multicloud will be the dominant architecture in the near future,” said John Woodall, vice president of engineering at General Datatech, a worldwide IT solutions provider and network integrator.

John Woodall, GDT’s VP of Engineering, describes the simplicity of doing business with NetApp and how customers are transforming, modernizing their data centers, and migrating to the cloud.

NetApp recently showed off the latest permutation of its partner program, promising to make it easier for channel partners of all types to better profit from working with the company.

ASUG caught up with GDT’s Bimal Budhabhatti to discuss what prompted GDT to implement it and how GDT finished its migration ahead of schedule.

On June 5th, GDT announced that we were partnering with Mavenir to deliver OpenRAN solutions and services, and this news was covered by many publications in the telecom, financial news, and local news spaces.

Mavenir, the industry’s only end-to-end cloud-native network software provider for 4G/5G networks, and General Datatech (GDT), a leading global provider of enterprise networking infrastructure and data center solutions, announced today a collaboration partnership to deliver OpenRAN solutions in the United States.

The best part, Woodall said, is that Spot, like all NetApp’s recent cloud-focused acquisitions, are all SaaS-based.
