Driving Cloud Adoption
& Multi-Cloud Agility
About RackWare
Our Story
From the earliest days of cloud adoption, RackWare has played a pivotal role in helping enterprises make the leap from rigid on-premise infrastructure to flexible, scalable cloud environments. Founded in 2009 in Santa Clara, California, RackWare emerged at a time when cloud computing was gaining momentum but remained out of reach for many organizations due to the size, complexity, or legacy nature of their infrastructure. By eliminating barriers to entry such as difficult migrations, poor support for critical systems, and platform lock-in, RackWare enabled customers to adopt cloud strategies on their own terms.
Anticipating the evolution of cloud computing as it exists today, RackWare evolved to support multi-cloud and hybrid strategies with a unified platform for mobility, disaster recovery, and backup. Its automation technology is built to accommodate the diversity of real-world IT environments, streamlining migration and protection across public, private, and on-prem systems.
Today RackWare operates offices in the United States, United Kingdom, South America, and the Middle East, and is trusted by Fortune 50 companies and SMBs alike to move and protect critical workloads and ensure business continuity across clouds.
