Panel One-stop solution

Delhi based Jay Polychem had a disaster recovery site for business continuity; however it relied on manual backup using external drives. Through installation of StorTrends 2400i appliance, the company was able to minimize data-replication time by up to 80 percent.Implementation of StorTrends resulted in elimination of risk of single point failure associated with external WAN accelerators. Moreover, the solution by AmZetta also reduced the burden of manual backup by ensuring effective management of data. "StorTrends provided a one-stop solution to our backing-up done manually. We are using StorTrends 2400i as primary as well as secondary. We integrate primary box into AD and provide access to all users," said Ronesh Arora, CIO of Jay Polychem


Centralized data storage

In 2007, Chennai based Shriram Chits had multiple and critical financial data of customers stored in different formats. In other words, the storage was in form of DAS. Loss of any server could have derailed any form of data. AmZetta Technologies helped the firm centralize data storage with Disaster Recovery (DR) strategy by shifting DAS towards a central storage server with replication of a server at other location. For this, StorTrends' 1300i unit in a datacenter was deployed in a Snap-assisted Replication (SAR) mode with another 1300i unit placed in the branch office of Shriram Chits. This transformation helped Shriram Chits to consolidate and protect data besides strengthening Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery management.
