March 30, 2011

We all know the importance of implementing a Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plan, but what happens when you don’t have one? In our latest StoneFly case study,  we provide a sound BC and DR plan while exceeding RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and RPO (Recovery Point Objective) for a Utah-based professional industrial packaging company.

By implementing StoneFly’s high-performance Voyager-TSC IP SAN with SCVM (for asynchronous replication), the company was able virtualize their IT environment by 95%, reduced server space by 80%, and now has the option to  scale up their storage for the future.
