Northwest Regional Data Centre Relies on SANRAD
05 Mar 2008
The reliability offered by SANRAD's disaster recovery solution was instrumental in its selection by the Regional Florida University Data Center, it has been reported.
The Northwest Regional Data Center (NWRDC) identified a burgeoning risk associated with its ability to address disaster situations involving the 130 TB of client data stored on its archive tapes, as customer numbers increased.
While tapes had previously been stored offsite, the expanding volumes involved were making the process unwieldy and disaster recovery questions became increasingly pressing, prompting the firm to look to SANRAD for a dynamically scalable solution, DataStorageConnection.com reports.
Mikal Haney, software support manager at the data centre, explains: "The SANRAD V-Switch enables us to reliably transport critical data through the Florida Lambda Rail and Southern Light Rail dark fibre network to a Class 5 disaster recovery hot site in Atlanta."
He added that the uptake of SANRAD's solution had allowed the organisation to proceed to "a new level", providing confidence in its ability to recover from disasters while maintaining flexibility for future growth.
SANRAD states that its V-Switches are storage vendor agnostic, supporting all storage brands and types, thereby adjusting to future needs while providing "low-cost, network-centric disaster recovery technology" today.
Last month, SANRAD announced that it had achieved record sales in the last quarter of 2007, identifying "skyrocketing" demand for its iSCSI solution across the globe due to its "perfect fit" in virtual server infrastructures.
