Sydney Australia – NetDocuments, the leader in cloud-based document and email management (DMS), has announced the expansion of their global data centre infrastructure to the APAC region with the addition of two data centres hosted by NEXTDC in Australia. NetDocuments' presence in the region is growing at an accelerated pace with adoption from dozens of leading organisations, including a top-10 Australian law firm. The priority to establish an APAC regional data centre infrastructure was essential in supporting the customer base as firms, corporations, and professional services organisations continue to adopt NetDocuments' cloud-based service.

"We are delighted to be the home for NetDocuments' new regional data centres in Australia, and we welcome NetDocuments to our national ecosystem as a leading global cloud platform that is driving further depth in our legal and financial services vertical offerings," said NEXTDC's CEO Craig Scroggie. "NetDocuments and NEXTDC are deeply committed to reliability, security and privacy, a fact reflected in the companies' ISO27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS) certification."

NetDocuments has a long history in the region, and the new data centre infrastructure will provide a level of service, continuity, and security that organisations expect from their security-focused, specialised vendors. "NEXTDC was our top data centre choice due to their presence as Australia's leading independent data centre operator," said Alvin Tedjamulia, CTO at NetDocuments. "Our stringent security and compliance needs have to be met at a level that exceeds industry expectations, and NEXTDC fulfilled our requirements and will provide the infrastructure that is consistent with our long-standing objectives of world-class security, compliance, encryption, and business continuity with a best-of-breed solution for document and email management."

Global adoption of cloud services like NetDocuments continues to increase as organisations realise the benefits of services with advanced security infrastructures to address global data management and security requirements that exceed what an organisation or corporation could achieve on their own or with an on-premises or hosted system. "We are thrilled to be involved with NEXTDC as our data centre partner, providing redundancy, security, and high availability of the NetDocuments service to our customer base in the region," said Paul Wyatt, NetDocuments' Regional Manager for APAC. "As NetDocuments continues to grow at a rapid pace and capture market share in the region, we required a data centre that could sustain our growth, while providing a service that our company and our client base expect. After a rigorous selection process, we found NEXTDC to be a leader for IT infrastructure management, and a strong supporter of cloud-based technology."
