Continent 8 Technologies Achieves Broadcom Premier Partner Status for VMware Public and Private Cloud
The trusted infrastructure provider for the global online gambling industry leverages global cloud experience, supporting customers seeking demonstrable migration expertise and management
Continent 8 Technologies, the leading provider of managed hosting, connectivity, cloud and cybersecurity solutions to the global online gambling industry, has strengthened its VMware solution capabilities by achieving Premier Partner status in the newly-formed Broadcom program.
The Broadcom Partner Program for VMware cloud service providers (VCSPs) enables Continent 8 Technologies to remain a trusted VMware partner in delivering managed cloud solutions globally to customers. Being a premier partner means that customers can be confident that Continent 8 Technologies meets the highest standards and qualifications in the delivery, management and support of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and adjacent solutions. Membership in the program is by invitation only and is available to those key partners to whom Broadcom offers to appoint.
Over the past 25+ years, Continent 8 Technologies has earned an unrivalled reputation for reliable infrastructure and connectivity, innovating, developing and providing services to support the most demanding online requirements. Achieving this partner status demonstrates its value in managing critical workloads.
With 15 public, multi-tenant, regulated clouds and more than 40 private, dedicated tenant clouds globally, Continent 8 Technologies can offer customers best-in-class managed and professional services.
Continent 8 Technologies has successfully migrated many customers from non-virtualised and existing VMware infrastructure to fully managed and compliant clouds, bringing cost savings via licensing scale and 24/7 support capability.
The company manages more than 150 cloud customer virtual environments across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America, bringing a repeatable high-quality, high resilience and DDoS-protected experience wherever customers’ workloads need to be.
Continent 8 Technologies launched its first public cloud offering almost ten years ago and now also provides inclusive off-site backup, object storage, container services and inclusive WaaP and DDoS protection to its customers.
“Achieving Premier Partner status following the Broadcom acquisition and change in commercial environment was an important milestone for Continent 8 Technologies,” the Chief Technical Officer for Continent 8 Technologies, Edward O’Connor, said. “Not only does this demonstrate to customers our ability to manage and migrate customers’ VMware workloads but retain key cost efficiencies. Adding this to our existing Nutanix, Veeam and AWS partner status and accreditation capabilities allows our customers the option of multiple private and public cloud technologies for regulated requirements.
“It is partnerships and capabilities such as this that have allowed Continent 8 Technologies to become the go-to infrastructure and cloud provider for operators and suppliers in the global online gambling industry, providing a one-stop-shop for customer needs.”
“This partner status is key to us continuing to enable customers to choose their cloud and Continent 8 Technologies manages, secures and connects them,” the Chief Product Officer for Continent 8 Technologies, Justin Cosnett, said. “Customers can engage Continent 8 Technologies to undertake all migration activity, minimising any potential cost impact.
“For any customer concerned about reducing technology spend and minimising management overheads, Continent 8 Technologies offers a comprehensive alternative, maintaining or even improving regulatory compliance via inclusive backup. With two more public clouds being launched in the next quarter in the United States and Latin America, the growth and adoption of our cloud capabilities is a testament to our professional and managed services teams.”

Northern Super League Partners with Stats Perform

Stats Perform, the global leader in sports AI, data and technology, has announced an official data partnership with the Northern Super League (NSL). The partnership will allow world-leading Opta data to be collected live from every NSL league game for the next three years.
Beginning this month, the Northern Super League (NSL) establishes a new era in Canadian sport as the country’s first professional domestic women’s soccer league — an ambitious and transformative initiative co-founded by former Canadian international and Olympic medallist Diana Matheson. Its inaugural season kicks off on April 16 and will feature six teams who have assembled multinational player rosters with extensive club and international experience, including 100-cap Canadian internationals Desiree Scott and Quinn.
Once the action begins, detailed data from every on-ball event, including advanced AI-powered Opta Analytics metrics such as Expected Goals (xG) and Expected Assists (xA), will be captured and distributed via feeds and Stats Perform products, including OptaAI Studio. This will enable various broadcasters, publishers and rights holders to generate stories and insights throughout the NSL season and provide them straight to the league’s fans in real time.
As part of the agreement, the NSL’s League Office and every NSL club will also have access to Opta Search, part of OptaAI Studio. This will allow their content creators to leverage all Opta data collected during the NSL season in the creation of data-led stories on the stand-out performers, and will help them generate key talking points for publication on official league and club platforms. Opta Search will also empower the NSL’s media team to create a range of data visualizations, including player shot maps and touch maps, to visually illustrate the impact of different players’ on-field performances.
Christina Litz, NSL President, said: “We are thrilled to have Stats Perform on board as our official data partner. When we talk about detailed performance data in soccer, Opta is the gold standard, so we are delighted to have it powering each of our official digital channels. As the season progresses, we want to put the spotlight on all the on-field heroes who emerge and having access to world-class data will help us tell their stories and inspire a new generation of Canadian soccer fans.”
Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, said: “Stats Perform has been a huge supporter of expansion leagues around the world, so we are very pleased to be partnering with NSL in the lead-up to their first domestic campaign. Seeing a fully professional women’s soccer league launch in Canada is an incredibly exciting development for the sport in North America and we see considerable potential in working proactively with the League’s Head Office to help the competition grow, using the power of AI and data-led storytelling to build fan communities across the continent.”
