In addition, we will benefit from the company's strong APJ regional ties, talented employee base, and natural evolution up the IT services stack. These benefits will provide a clear tie between our services and important customer business metrics'. , Hemanta Banerjee, Founder and Chief Architect for Just Analytics enthuses: 'By combining our capabilities with the Rackspace Technology global presence, resources, and scale, we can shift our focus to solely growing our existing business while Rackspace Technology integrates business functions to help us grow'.
