Riverbed Case Studies
Hogan and Hartson LLP
In the past, Hogan and Hartson LLP utilised DLT or LTO Tape backups via Veritas. This old method created challenges. The time it took to do backups and restores often exceeded the window of time available, the tapes, off site storage, and pick up were not cost effective and technical problem with hung drives required servers to be rebooted. There was also a heavy reliance on man power within the various offices to swap the tapes necessary for correct backups.

Re-architecting Disaster Recovery Solutions Leveraging WAN Optimization Technology
Disaster Recovery (DR) is not new—many organisations have employed some form of DR for quite some time. Companies have been replicating their mainframe, storage, and database systems for years. Before that, they moved paper documents to offsite locations. So, what‘s new with DR?
