Commenting on his appointment, Chief Technology Officer Kamran Yousaf said “It’s great to work for an organization that strives for excellence. I am pleased to be back at Storage Made Easy at such an exciting time in the company’s evolution as a leading player in the data fabric space.”
Announcing the news, Jim Liddle, CEO, said “I am thrilled that Kamran is back where he belongs and I look forward to working closely again with him. We are at an exciting time in the company’s history. In the past, only financial institutions had to run their company as a walled garden. Now, with the advent of GDPR and increasingly stricter compliance, every company must implement privacy and security by design. Our File Fabric acts as a non invasive event based proxy for all data based applications, providing a true event based file system for consolidated corporate data sets and given Kamran’s big data, low latency, analytics background, I know that he will strive for increased product excellence.”
