SoftwareOne snaps up HeleCloud

SoftwareOne has acquired leading Amazon Web Services (AWS) partner HeleCloud for an amount of money – it won’t say how much.

UK-based HeleCloud is an AWS MSP and AWS consulting partner and will give SoftwareOne more depth around that cloud technology across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), thanks to its operations here, in the Netherlands and Bulgaria.

The cunning plan is for HeleCloud’s leadership team and employees to integrate into SoftwareOne’s AWS practice.

HeleCloud has been around since 2016 and brings consulting expertise and knowledge of software architecture, infrastructure engineering and managed services, it is said. The firm has positioned itself as the ideal partner for those customers seeking help to navigate the often complex world of public cloud.

Javid Khan, AWS global director of SoftwareOne, said it had been targeting growth from the public cloud and the deal would support all that.

HeleCloud appoints Walter Heck as Group Chief Technology Officer

HeleCloud, an AWS Premier Consulting Partner based in the UK, Bulgaria and the Netherlands,  announced the appointment of Walter Heck as Group Chief Technology Officer.

Heck’s appointment comes after a strong year of growth for HeleCloud, with the company recording a 70 percent revenue growth rate in 2020 while also adding more than 30 AWS consultants and engineers.

 In his role as CTO, Heck will be primarily responsible for maintaining this growth by expanding HeleCloud’s technical offerings to its customers and working to attract the best AWS consultants.

 HeleCloud completed the acquisition of Cloud-native software development company DataStork, enabling HeleCloud to expand its expertise into the Cloud-native software development and Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ ML) space. Heck will be responsible for ensuring these capabilities are integrated with HeleCloud’s existing professional and managed service offerings.
