Stellar Industrial Supply Optimizes Backup with Unitrends
In 2006, Stellar Industrial Supply found that their tape backup solution was not keeping up with their needs. Keith Faller, Senior IT Administrator, said the tape backup would not let them fully recover a failed server to a dissimilar hardware platform. Because it is often impossible to exactly match the hardware when replacing a failed server, the lack of dissimilar recovery presented unacceptable risk of downtime.
Additionally, tape backup was slow and unreliable. This was simply unacceptable, due to Stellar Industrial Supply’s reliance on computer applications to support core business functions, from price optimization, to cost control, logistics, inventory management and ecommerce. Rapid recovery needed to include not only the data files, but also the server configurations, core applications, Microsoft SQL databases, and Microsoft Exchange email.
