Overview:
How does a dynamic U.K. business get its large customers to entrust it with their data? The answer is to deploy a Quantum data deduplication solution. By implementing a comprehensive disk-to-disk-to-tape (D2D2T) backup and restore infrastructure based on the Quantum DXi-Series, Internet for Business (IFB) - one of Scotland's leading Internet Service Providers (ISPs) - is winning the trust and confidence of its expanding client base. This resilient and flexible infrastructure is helping IFB provide performance comparable to conventional disk but more cost-effective in terms of medium-term retention. Using deduplication, the company has been able to increase the amount of backup data clients can retain on fast-recovery disk by 12 times. The system has been such a successful component of IFB's managed services strategy that it has received a complete return on its investment in only four weeks.
