SVF Redefines Data Management With Cost-Saving

The Requirement

The company wanted to re-imagine its default backup and recovery plan. Using tape drive posed a series of functional burdens. Despite being one of the oldest data backup systems even in use today, tape often tends to be unreliable, face unavoidable compatibility issues, requires expensive maintenance focus, has storage capacity limitations and portability complexities. Tapes lead to higher costs in employee involvement and require time and storage facility transformation for addressing the evolving business priorities in this digital economy. The client wanted to reduce the costly undertaking and achieve usability, security, cost savings, collaboration, convenience and synchronization benefits. It wanted to adopt a proven architecture that leads to true growth, handles the TB's of data it processes digitally, and continually creates new opportunities to improve its user experience for better engagement and value creation.

Benefits

1. A robust and scalable infrastructure solution
2. Easy storage - no investment in purchasing hardware
3. Sync of files from On Premise to the cloud
4. Quick retrieval of files when required
5. Seamless accessibility and management and archival of media content
6. Performance boost with measurable cost saving

To conclude AWS Snowball suggested in the architecture helped move TBs of data easily from On Premise to AWS S3. File Gateway on the other hand ensured that the newer data was easily moved and stored on to S3 on an ongoing basis. This meant freeing from planning of costly storage. They don’t even have to think of having a backup of the storage as the durability of objects in the S3 bucket take care of the same.
