Chantilly, VA — January 12, 2009 — Apptis Technology Solutions, a division of Apptis, Inc., and a technology solutions provider and value-added reseller, announced today that it has been named a NetApp Authorized Professional Service Partner (APSP).
"We are thrilled to have reached this milestone in our relationship with NetApp," said Rene LaVigne, President and Chief Operating Officer of Apptis Technology Solutions. "NetApp is a significant data center management and storage solutions business partner and a critical component of our strategy. We have spent years working closely together, always striving to enhance the offerings and the services we provide to our government customers. We are proud that our commitment to NetApp has been recognized at the highest level."
Apptis Technology Solutions has worked as a NetApp Star Certified Partner since 2004.
