ArmorCore Makes Mission Impossible, Mission Accomplished

D-K Insurance case study released today, Thursday, June 21, proves ArmorCore Total Data Protection solutions enhance backup reliability and disaster recovery, while eliminating tape costs.

Saint Paul, MN (PRWEB) June 21, 2007 -- Most people rely on insurance agencies to protect them from disaster, but on whom can the insurance companies rely on when disaster strikes? ArmorCore® (www.armor247.com) provides unbeatable disaster recovery, backup and restore, partitioning, data migration, and other storage management and virtualization products for SOHO, small-to-midsize businesses, and consumers. ArmorCore® goes beyond insurance, beyond the claim to get the job done and provide total data protection and security.

D-K Insurance, like all companies, is dependent on its data and customer records. The company must be able to back up and restore all its data for its daily functioning, as well as to help with business & continuity, and plan to meet disaster recovery regulatory requirements. But the agency was having reliability issues backing up its data. It was using several different tape systems for overnight backups, and those backups did not always complete by morning, sometimes leaving the company without backups.

To solve the problem, D-K Insurance implemented an ArmorCore® Total Data Protection, which provided disk to disk, and accelerated backup performance and duplication on-site. D-K Insurance has achieved problem-free backups and has been able to create the infrastructure for a disaster recovery plan, achieving disaster recovery regulatory requirements, and expects to cut costs as a result of no longer having to purchase expensive physical tapes.

With the ArmorCore® Total Data Protection, D-K Insurance has improved the reliability of backups, enhanced its recovery options and improved on its disaster recovery plan capabilities while eliminating tape usage and containing costs going forward. Backup success rates have improved from 98.32% to 99.99%. In addition, the system will reduce the amount of time IT staff spends managing backups. These statistics are just more evidence why resellers should jump on board to get ArmorCore products on their list of must haves.

Prior to installing the ArmorCore® solution, D-K Insurance ran 10 separate backup operations a day, and on average, one backup operation failed a day. Since the ArmorCore® solution has been implemented; there has been no recorded failure without proper notice and quick resolve.

The solution is also scalable, allowing D-K Insurance to be able to easily add the storage as it needs well into the future. With the ArmorCore® solution, D-K Insurance is now positioned to meet the ongoing and increasingly complex backup and recovery demands. The solution will save the company significant costs through enhanced management capabilities, and a reduction in the amount of IT time required to manage backups.
