Ionir announced Mike Wall as its new chief executive officer.

The lack of a de facto cloud-native data services layer within Kubernetes, coupled with the inability to overcome data gravity, threatens to slow or stall global Kubernetes production rollouts.

Ionir was built from the ground up on a microservices-based Kubernetes platform, and is uniquely positioned to serve the growing need for data persistence, agility, and protection.

Ionir's patented metadata model frees Kubernetes data from data gravity, enabling instant data mobility over both distance and time.

Mike Wall, CEO, ionir, said: "Kubernetes and containerization together redefine cloud and IT infrastructure, freeing applications to run anywhere. However, the data gravity challenge must be overcome to ensure true application agility. ionir is the only technology that addresses the data challenges of running Kubernetes at scale. This level of system-wide disruption creates gigantic market opportunity."

Fiona Darmon, general partner, Jerusalem Venture Partners, said: "We are thrilled to deepen our partnership with Mike as the company rapidly expands in North America, where burgeoning demand for Kubernetes Data Services is attracting customers and strategic partners alike. Mike brings a unique combination of deep industry experience and proven leadership skills that will set ionir apart in driving the market forward."
