Columbia, SC (PRWEB) March 30, 2010
Unitrends, the leader in affordable, heterogeneous, vertically integrated, disk-based all-in-one data protection appliances, today announced that it has partnered with Colocube, a leading Atlanta-based IT hosting and colocation provider. Together, the companies will deliver cost-effective, cloud-based disaster recovery solutions for the small and medium-sized enterprise. The partnership extends the data protection of Unitrends on-premise appliances into the cloud for 24/7 disaster recovery availability.
Unitrends has for years offered private cloud-based disaster recovery; as we have begun offering public multi-tenant cloud-based disaster recovery services we found that Colocube offered the type of world-class 24x7x365 day infrastructure our customers have come to expect from us, said Dr. Mark Campbell, chief operating officer, Unitrends. Their carrier-class facility enables us to assure exceptional service levels and backup and recovery speeds to our customers at an exceptional price point.
Unitrends helps organizations solve many of the traditional challenges and concerns when it comes to data protection including ease of use, manageability and reliability, said Fred Tanzella, CEO, Colocube. Companies will benefit from the security, performance, and continuous data availability of the cloud data protection services delivered through our partnership with Unitrends.
The partnership allows Unitrends to integrate its all-in-one on-premise backup and archiving appliances with a muti-tenant cloud-based storage architecture implemented via a SAS 70 compliant cloud backup infrastructure hosted by Colocube. Unlike other cloud-based offerings, the combined Unitrends/Colocube solution delivers fast physical seeding of customer data into the cloud via next-day shipment of a fully-loaded on-premise appliance for data recovery. The service is monitored and managed through the same simple, easy-to-use Web 2.0-based user interface offered for all Unitrends appliances and monitored at all times by expert data protection staff at Colocube.
