“We’re scaling to serve our growing clientele of global enterprises, government and education customers in North America and Europe,” said Yuval Cohen, CEO, Neebula Systems. “Our goal is to free today’s IT administrator from the drudgery of understanding details about how specific physical and virtual assets, among the thousands of assets deployed in a typical data center, combine to provide a business service while empowering them to manage services better by helping to pinpoint issues before they impact an end-user business service. Bob and Ilan will help us communicate this value and work with partners to make it a reality.”
