Computacenter

Many organisations struggle to meet backup and recovery service levels. Information growth is the most common reason for this. With increased regulatory compliance accurate archiving of the key data and applications your business relies on isn’t an option – it’s a business imperative.

With the right solution, the processes of backup, recovery and archiving can complement each other - to help streamline and improve IT and business operations. Since these challenges are closely interrelated, your organisation benefits most from a comprehensive, cost effective approach to solving them.

Computacenter and EMC can offer a solution that is flexible to meet any back up recovery and archiving requirement. Most of the data today on file servers is dormant and includes duplicate data. When a file or record is not actively being updated or frequently accessed, it should automatically move into an active online archive that is accessible enabling you to free up to 70 percent of your file server capacity. The newly reduced-in-size production information can now be backed up to disk for restore purposes. This translates into smaller back-up windows and improved application availability.

Computacenter’s consultancy capabilities go beyond storage to also include server, security and networking. We offer consultants with the highest level of vendor accreditations and practical experience in their field - able to deliver an unrivalled level of infrastructure integration.

With Computacenter and EMC’s File Server Assessment you can:

  • Better understand the aging of your files and how much content in total is not being accessed or modified i.e how much content is backed up that could be taken out of the weekly and monthly backup cycles
  • Realise how much production capacity could be reclaimed if this content were to be moved from the production tier to a self-managed archive tier, like EMC Centera
  • Identify what types of content are residing on the server(s), produced by which department, you can decide if the data serves a business purpose or not (eg Private Jpeg collection, ipod files)
  • The service provides a one-stop assessment; Computacenter will leverage the latest EMC technology, explain how to interpret the resulting data, and consult with you on ‘next steps’ that could be considered
  • Results are presented in a straightforward report that you can share with your stake holders to drive consensus on next steps
