Atempo Time Navigator Archives Digitized Hollywood Movies at EFILM | 2008-04-24 | Atempo |
| EFILM is the market leader in digitizing blockbuster Hollywood films, with most of the major studios relying on them to convert and edit their films in digital format. With more than 250 terabytes of online disk storage, EFILM has a large amount of data from different projects to manage at any given time. Getting those huge chunks of data on and off disk and ensuring they are backed up presents a huge challenge. EFILM chose Atempo Time Navigator because they needed a solution that could provide them with a fast and easy way to identify individual pieces of data and easily store and restore that data to any specified storage media.

Hollywood Advertising Agency, the Cimarron Group, Protects Enterprise Data With Atempo Time Navigator | 2008-04-24 | Atempo |
| The Cimarron Group is one of Hollywood's largest and most successful entertainment marketing agencies. Cimarron needed to upgrade one of its core business functions, the ongoing backups of 40 Terabytes of data. Ideally, the new data storage system would include tape backup, full backups on weekends (48-hour window), and incremental backups every weeknight (6-hour window), with minimal impact to production workflow. Cimarron evaluated several solutions from different vendors, but Atempo Time Navigator was the only solution that delivered the unlimited scalability and Apple Xsan support critical to Cimarron. Atempo's technology allowed Cimarron to upgrade their existing data storage and backup infrastructure while providing unique abilities to work across complex, multi-platform and multi-application environments.

AmeriVault Case Study: Harford County Public Schools | 2008-04-15 | amerivault |
| Harford County Public Schools (HCPS) has been using computers - and backing up the data on those computers - for decades. Each one of the 51 schools is networked to a central computer center, where a community portal serves both internal and external users. The school system needed to address the security of its large and ever growing footprint of sensitive data, as well as the processes involved for backup and recovery. AmeriVault backs up 1.2 terabytes of data and stores it securely offsite each night. Financials, Human Resource documents, ERP system data, Microsoft SQL server data, and Microsoft Exchange email system data are all backed up automatically.

Healthcare Firm Does Network Reconstruction - An Operation That Pays for Itself | 2008-03-06 | Microsoft |
| Greater Rochester Orthopaedics employs about 44 individuals in Rochester, New York. The organization is an alliance of board-certified orthopedic surgeons providing general and specialty care. GRO briefly considered an external drive as a fix for the storage concerns, but that option didn't offer the managed solution it needed to improve business practices. The organization ideally wanted to centralize operations, backups, and security, so they decided to shift toward a completely forward-thinking, reconstructive solution. Weighing its needs - a storage server, virtualization, and better handling of remote applications - the practice decided to move forward with the deployment of Windows Server 2008. This new server supports 44 users, particularly in their use of the practice-management and EMR application eClinicalWorks.
