Energy XXI Implements Asigra Recovery Platform

Asigra Inc. announced that Energy XXI, an oil and natural gas
exploration and production company with operations based in Houston TX,
has implemented Asigra’s information recovery platform deployed and
managed by Terian Solutions.

Energy XXI turned to Terian
Solutions after determining that its existing automated tape backup
system was not reliable enough to ensure against loss of critical data.
The company had temporarily opted for a disk-to-disk system, but that
option proved slow and unreliable and lacked offsite capabilities.
Because Energy XXI’s primary operating subsidiary is based in Houston,
where hurricane threats are part of daily life, offsite backup
capabilities are critical. The company selected Asigra-empowered
managed backup services from Terian Solutions because of its
demonstrated effectiveness, ease of administration and superior
customer service.

“Data protection and disaster recovery are
top priorities for our company – especially since we sit in a region
that is prone to hurricanes,” said Andrew Schaefer, IT Director at
Energy XXI. “Our information is critical to our business and helps us
maintain our competitive edge in the industry. We simply can’t afford
to be down or lose our information if a natural disaster strikes. Our
enterprise information recovery solution gives us the assurance we need
to be fail-proof in the event of a disaster.”

Immediate recovery of the company’s Microsoft
Exchange server—should that operation prove necessary—is a priority for
Energy XXI, whose email data are critical to its ability to function.
Using Asigra, Terian provides built-in Continuous Data Protection (CDP)
for message or brick-level recovery and near-instant availability of
Exchange-based data in the event of information loss.

According to Mike Colesante, president of
Terian Solutions, “Asigra’s enterprise information recovery management
platform gives us the confidence to serve customers like Energy XXI,
whose efficient operations depend on effective data protection. We see
ourselves as a top-notch data backup and recovery service so the
software we use has to be on par with our offering and Asigra exceeds
those requirements.”

A single event resulting in lost data or
application downtime can result in significant revenue loss, fines or
other negative implications. With the offsite protection of
irreplaceable information an absolute must, it is paramount for
companies to create and put into action a protection plan that enables
secure, offsite, automatic backup and recovery of this information. By
partnering with managed backup service experts like Terian Solutions,
focused on providing reliable managed backup, companies can ensure the
safekeeping and high availability of business-critical information
quickly, easily and affordably.

“At a busy company, it’s critical that valuable
IT staff spend their time on strategic, revenue-producing initiatives,
rather than managing daily backups,” said Joseph Jeter, Chief Sales
Officer for Asigra. “But a company like Energy XXI needs assurance its
information is protected. That’s why they turned to the experts at
Terian Solutions and Asigra to deliver an information recovery platform
that offers the highest level of protection.”
