Irvine, CA (PRWEB) February 20, 2014 -- RapidScale (http://www.rapidscale.net), an innovative Cloud Computing solutions provider, welcomes Jeff Meltzer to the RapidScale team as Vice President of Wholesale. Having sold cloud-based software for the last 12 years, Mr. Meltzer is passionate about the market and brings his experience and enthusiasm to the RapidScale team. During Mr. Meltzer's tenure at Citrix, he had the opportunity to work with the RapidScale team on numerous occasions including a project with Verizon Wireless on a Desktop as a Service (http://www.desktopasaservice.us) offering. "It was clear to not only myself, but many of the senior engineers at Citrix that RapidScale is far advanced in their product offerings, which puts RapidScale in a very unique and exciting position. The hosted desktop market, especially for today's small and medium businesses, is a multi-billion dollar industry. A company like RapidScale levels that playing field so an SMB company can compete with an Enterprise organization,” says Meltzer.

Much of Mr. Meltzer's experience has been working in the Channel. He got his start in the cloud in the late 90's working for Verio, an NTT company. Mr. Meltzer's role in business development allowed him to broker deals with the likes of Microsoft, Computer Associates, and many other dot com companies in the early stages of the Internet and ASP.
RapidScale Co-Founder and CEO, Randy Jeter, believes “Mr. Meltzer will be an exceptional addition to the RapidScale team.
