Cloudian Solves Backup Challenges for European Managed Services ProviderSAN MATEO, Calif., Feb. 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cloudian today announced that Systemec, a managed services provider specializing in health care and logistics in the Netherlands and Germany, has deployed Cloudian’s HyperStore object storage platform to address the backup challenges of growing data volumes. Cloudian enables Systemec to protect data from multiple applications, prevent the scheduling problems it previously faced and achieve increased cost efficiency. Continued Data Growth Threatens to Overwhelm Backup Windows “This growth raised concerns about accommodating the future data volume,” said Marco Teelen, internet services manager at Systemec. “As a result, we decided to expand our secondary storage.” Finding a Scalable and Flexible Solution “We looked at some alternatives but quickly reached the conclusion that Cloudian was the righ solution for addressing our needs,” said Wouter Simons, systems engineer at Systemec. Systemec started with approximately 100 TB of Cloudian HyperStore object storage distributed across the three data centers. To support file service requirements from the same system, the firm also employed Cloudian’s HyperFile NAS Controller. Building a Storage Foundation for the Future “We no longer have to worry about whether we’ll be able to meet our backup windows,” said Teelen. “Moreover, we now have a limitlessly scalable storage foundation that enables us to deliver new services to our customers.” As an example, Teelen reported that Systemec is looking at selling services to customers that could capitalize on Cloudian’s full S3 compatibility, such as those using Veeam data protection.
