Asempra Partners With LeftHand
Becoming a member of the Technology Alliance Program
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on April 24, 2008 at 3:50 pmAsempra Technologies is partnering with LeftHand Networks as a member of the Technology Alliance Program (TAP). Provider of highly available iSCSI SANs, LeftHand Networks’ Technology Alliance Program enables extensive compatibility testing, mutual customer support, solution development and joint marketing and sales, making it easy for mid-market customers to evaluate and deploy a combined storage solution.
“The majority of our customers are running Microsoft Exchange, SQL, and Windows file servers and they need a continuous availability and data protection solution that eliminates the issues of traditional tape backup,” said Karl Chen, vice president of business development for LeftHand Networks. “Asempra delivers a unique solution that instantly restores these environments with zero data loss. We are pleased to collaborate with Asempra to deliver solutions that will benefit our mutual customers.”
Asempra’s Business Continuity Server (BCS) solution protects Microsoft SQL, Exchange, and Windows File Server applications and data through a patented approach that captures and indexes all data events, creating a virtualized data store that allows instantaneous recovery to any point-in-time. Using Asempra’s virtualized recovery and data protection technology (Virtual On-Demand Recovery), Exchange and SQL can be available as fast as 30 seconds after a storage failure. The BCS allows IT administrators to ‘roll back the clock’ so that applications and their data are immediately available at any point-in-time just as they were before outages caused by storage failures, human error, virus outbreaks, or even a datacenter fire. The BCS delivers complete, uncorrupted data at all times, eliminating the need for multiple, costly manual recoveries that are frequently required when relying on traditional backup and restore technologies.
The BCS combines next-generation storage technologies into an all-in-one solution tailored to mid-market needs. Real-time continuous data protection, application availability, snapshot, replication, disk-based backup, and seamless tape backup technologies ensure business data is always available, 24×7. Bringing together multiple technologies in an easy-to-use solution is dramatically more cost-effective, and easier to manage for mid-size companies with limited IT resources.
“We are very excited to be recognized by LeftHand Networks as a member of the Technology Alliance Program,” said Mike Morando, vice president of business development for Asempra. “Mutual customers are now assured of compatibility and interoperability between Asempra’s industry acclaimed BCS and LeftHand’s award-winning storage solutions. Our partnership with LeftHand will help mid-market customers reach their challenging recovery and data protection goals, allowing them to recover from an Exchange, Windows or SQL Server storage failure in seconds or minutes.”
