  • LaserVault Backup Goes to Europe

    October 15, 2013 Alex Woodie

    Electronic Storage Corp. says that its disk-to-disk LaserVault Backup offering is helping IBM i shops in the UK eliminate their reliance on tape and move to a more streamlined backup environment.

    LaserVault Backup is a software product that’s designed to enable IBM i environments to be backed up and stored on non-IBM i environments, including NAS, SAN, or dedicated appliances, such as the Universal Backup Device (UBD) that Electronic Storage Corp. also sells. This makes it easy to move the data offsite, while maintaining the capability to restore the data to the iSeries quickly when needed.

    Electronic Storage Corp. is working with the UK-based IBM business partner APSU to provide LaserVault Backup as a service in the UK. According to Robert Poreba, a services support manager at APSU, the software is helping its customers improve their backup processes.

    “The LaserVault Backup solution provides excellent compression of data and has helped us eliminate the manual process of handling tapes for our clients,” Poreba says in a press release. “This delivers both off-site tape storage and cold-start disaster recovery. LaserVault Backup is integral to this solution and it is ideal for customers for whom an RPO [Recovery Point Objective] of the last backup is acceptable.”

    Integrate Virtual Tape to Automate Your Backups And Strengthen Your Ability To Recover From Cyber Attacks And Disasters

    With most IT departments stretched thin, finding something that can quickly free up IT time is definitely a bonus. That’s why it’s important to stop and take a look at integrating virtual tape into your backup and recovery. Virtual tape is one of those technologies where once you have it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. See a demo and get a $50 gift card.

    But what is it about using virtual tape that makes it so worthwhile? Why is it that so many IBM i shops are already using or considering using virtual tape for all or part of their backup and recovery systems?

    Virtual tape and virtual tape libraries offer a way to both simplify and strengthen backup and recovery operations. By incorporating virtual tape technology, automation of backups becomes possible resulting in hundreds of hours saved annually for IT departments and personnel.

    “We needed to find a replacement that would lower the maintenance cost and reduce complexity of our backup and recovery functions without a major disruption to our operations.” David Fray, Director of Enterprise Systems, ABC Financial
