Sepaton maps European expansion for backup appliances

By James M. Connolly

Marlborough-based data protection company Sepaton Inc. announced plans to grow its presence in central Europe with a new sales operation based in Frankfurt, Germany, covering Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Sepaton, which sells data protection appliances that enable backup, restore, deduplication, replication and disaster recovery, named former Sun Microsystems Inc. executive Rolf Lange as sales director for central Europe. His initial focus will be on attracting reseller partners in the region.

In April of 2009, Sepaton took in $15.5 million in a Series F round.  The company’s name, which is “no tapes” backward, reflects that fact that its storage is based on disks not tapes. The company was founded in 2001 as SANgate Systems Inc. When a recapitalization was completed in 2004, company officials changed the name.
