Enabling Recovery of Business-Critical Servers and Data With Symantec Solution 2006-12-23 01:00:24 Symantec

Inventec Appliance Corporation is growing rapidly, both in revenues and number of locations. Downtime is expensive - $3 million a day - so the company must be able to rebuild servers and restore data quickly. Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery has shortened both backup and restore times, and provides great flexibility in recovering from a server failure.

Streamlining Backups and Boosting Application Performance With Symantec Reduces TCO 2006-12-23 01:00:24 Symantec

Headquartered in South Korea's capital city, Seoul Guarantee Insurance Company (SGIC) experienced rapid growth and needed an efficient, centralized way to backup data from its 50 branch offices throughout the country. SGIC's VERITAS NetBackup solution accommodates a 30 percent annual data growth rate while reducing the backup window and administration costs by 50 percent. Meanwhile VERITAS i3 software is diagnosing and eliminating Oracle database bottlenecks, improving performance by 50 percent.

Delivering Better SAP Performance and More Reliable Data Protection With Symantec Software 2006-12-23 01:00:24 Symantec

Explosive growth put pressure on Suning Appliance's infrastructure. Symantec is helping meet the company's needs by streamlining and automating both data protection and storage management. Thanks to Veritas NetBackup, Suning has been able to provide highly reliable backups and restores and keep administration costs under control, even as data volumes shoot up by 50 percent a year. Storage Foundation speeds database access and thus improves SAP's I/O performance by 50 percent.

Fairleigh Dickinson University Centralizes Storage and Backup, Improves Disaster Recovery and Email With HP Hewlett-Packard StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Arrays and ProLiant Blade Servers 2006-12-13 01:00:24 Hewlett-Packard

Fairleigh Dickinson University, the largest private university in New Jersey, wanted to improve its backup procedures and disaster recovery processes, but its existing storage infrastructure made that difficult. It was using server-attached storage and tape backups, which were costly and difficult to manage and maintain. In addition, it wanted to improve the performance of its email servers. It turned to HP to solve its problems, and chose Hewlett-Packard StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Arrays; award-winning Hewlett-Packard ProLiant blade servers; and Hewlett Packard MSL6060 tape libraries. As a result, the university now has a scalable, centralized, easy-to-use storage and backup infrastructure capable of full disaster recovery that can easily be scaled to meet the needs of the university well into the future.

SICK AG - On Its Way to Information Lifecycle Management 2006-12-13 01:00:24 Hewlett-Packard

SICK AG had a highly complex heterogeneous storage environment which had associated high costs. It needed centralisation for its entire globally-operative corporate group, which had large volumes of data. The company looked for a storage solution that could meet its tough requirements: high data availability, high safety and security, and a small backup window. The company selected uniform system platform and integrated storage solution from online storage to archiving; HP FSE for archiving; online storage using two HP StorageWorks EVA5000, each with 10TB storage capacity; daily backup with HP StorageWorks ESL9322 and HP OpenView Storage Data Protector software for backup and restore.

HP Integrity Servers Help Keep Planes and Passengers in the Air 2006-12-13 01:00:24 Hewlett-Packard

Lufthansa Technik Logistik GmbH (LTL) supplies Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) services to 450 airlines worldwide. Its heterogeneous server environment delivered low performance and high maintenance costs and also had availability and scalability issues. Working together with HP, Lufthansa Systems consolidated the 18 old PA-RISC machines down to two HP Integrity Business Critical Servers (BCS). It transitioned LTL from PA-RISC to Itanium. HP MSL tape libraries and EVA storage arrays were provided for backup and storage. They were formed into two identical server and storage systems, connected by SAN switches to create a high availability mirrored environment.

HP Business Continuity and Availability Produces an Elegant Disaster Recovery Solution 2006-12-13 01:00:24 Hewlett-Packard

No corporation nowadays can afford to ignore Disaster Recovery (DR). But like all IT programs, DR can be implemented in a variety of ways. For Agricore United, Canada's largest grain handler and supplier of seed, crop nutrition, and crop protection products, a new HP DR infrastructure not only supports state-of-the-art business continuity, but does it cost-effectively. HP designed and implemented a "Hot" DR environment that leverages Agricore United's development systems as back-up production systems. Production data and system snapshots are replicated continually to minimize potential data loss; failover takes place within seconds and is transparent to users.

Networking Vendor Boosts Mobile Access, Security With Updated Messaging System 2006-11-29 01:00:19 Microsoft

Enterasys Networks, a global provider of Secure Networks solutions to enterprise customers across a range of industries, maintains offices in many countries and has a sales force that travels constantly. To provide sales representatives and other mobile information workers with improved access to the corporate messaging system, Enterasys became an early adopter of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. The deployment is expected to deliver benefits to both users and the Enterasys IT department. These include easier and faster access to e-mail with the improved Outlook Web Access, which can be used from any Web browser, and Outlook Voice Access, which can be used from any phone.

Reducing Backup Windows by 70% and Improving Data Availability With Symantec Software 2006-11-27 Symantec

Accounting firm Clifton Gunderson needs to protect financial data distributed across 57 offices throughout the U.S. The challenge has increased following a series of acquisitions, with data volumes expected to triple in less than three years. As part of an initiative to consolidate vendor relationships, the firm standardized on Symantec data protection and information security solutions. Results include a 41 percent reduction in the full backup window, along with greater data availability. In addition, the firm has experienced no disruptions from viruses or other electronic threats.

Protecting and Preserving Research Data in a Remote Arctic Environment With Software Solutions From Symantec and Advanced Internet Security 2006-11-21 Symantec

A scientific research organization on Alaska's remote North Slope, Barrow Arctic Science Consortium (BASC) needs to protect and preserve data generated by visiting researchers. Tight budgets, geographical isolation, and harsh weather mean that the two-person IT staff must protect its infrastructure with no local support resources. Visiting researchers add to the challenge by connecting their private, unprotected laptops to the consortium's networks. BASC relies on Symantec and its business partner, Advanced Internet Security (AIS), to address these issues with information security and data protection solutions. Results include zero disruptions from viruses and a greater than 90 percent reduction in backup and restore times.
