Databarracks opts for NetIQ's PlateSpin solution

Databarracks, the disaster recovery specialist, has selected NetIQ’s PlateSpin workload management and disaster recovery suite of products to reduce the recovery time for its customers. By using PlateSpin Protect, Migrate and Recon, Databarracks has lowered recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO) for its customers to under an hour and reduced compute costs, the company said.

“Our largest customers were asking for faster recovery times and the ability to protect both physical and virtual workloads. Operationally, we need to minimise the manual technical effort around recovery to keep our costs down and reduce complexity,” said Oliver Mather, technical director at Databarracks.

“We’ve unlocked obvious benefits for our customers, such as much faster RPO and RTO, but for us the fact that NetIQ’s PlateSpin family of products is hardware agnostic and simple to manage means that we are now pushing this area of our business much harder in the market and we’re seeing substantial growth.”

For their disaster recovery-as-a-service needs, Databarracks selected PlateSpin Recon for complex server consolidation and disaster recovery planning and analysis; PlateSpin Migrate to perform fast automated migrations in any direction between physical, virtual, and cloud environments; and PlateSpin Protect to replicate and rapidly recover server workloads, applications and operating systems. For customers that want to take more ownership of their own disaster recovery, Databarracks also offers a managed service based on NetIQ’s PlateSpin solutions.
