Bizanga Store and SYNERGY4 Team up to Provide Storage Virtualization Solutions for Microsoft SharePoint Customers

Bruehl, Germany (PRWeb UK) March 17, 2010

Bizanga Store and SYNERGY4, today announce a joint marketing initiative to deliver Microsoft SharePoint Platform customers an easier and lower cost way to store Microsoft SharePoint content. The integration of software from both companies provides storage infrastructure for Microsoft SharePoint customers, which solves the disaster recovery problem and offers new levels of application performance for customers with large or business critical Microsoft SharePoint data stores.

In combination with Stealth Softwares STEALTH Content Store distributed by SYNERGY4, Bizanga Store RING software becomes a massive-scale object-store for Microsoft SharePoint users who need increased storage and application performance to respond to the demands of exponential storage growth. STEALTH Softwares Content Store software enables users to use inline AES encryption on their content before storing it.

Bizanga Store RING delivers on Cloud Storages promise of unlimited storage capacity and lower infrastructure cost, while improving application performance and providing the security of on-premise installation. Unlike Microsoft SQL Server, Bizanga Store Ring has been designed to store Petabytes of unstructured content for millions of users. In addition, Bizanga Store Ring eliminates the overhead of volume management and capacity planning while providing automatic load balancing, automatic tiering, geo-redundancy and online compression.

The Integration of Bizanga Store RING with the STEALTH Softwares Content creates storage virtualization for the Microsoft SharePoint community. When the integrated solution is connected to Microsoft SharePoint, it restores SharePoint performance and solves backup and restore issues, even with many Terabytes of stored content, while Bizanga Stores RING technology offloads data onto low cost tiered storage to reduce TCO. By eliminating administration overhead in managing large data volumes, IT managers can focus on higher order challenges.

“We are enthusiastic with the Synergy 4 and Stealth Content Store initiative to create integrated storage solutions for the Microsoft SharePoint community”, said Dr. Bradley King, Director Partnerships at Bizanga Store.

SYNERGY4 integrates software that provides Microsoft SharePoint customers with more resilient content storage capabilities and creates Value Packages that enable our Partners to deliver business value to their clients.

De-Duplication, Compression and No Double Backups Required: AppAssure Releases the Fastest and Most Scalable Backup & Recovery Solution for Microsoft Hyper-V


Reston, VA (PRWEB) April 7, 2010

AppAssure Software today released version 4.3 of Replay, the award-winning, next generation backup and disaster recovery software solution. Because Replay performs a single application-aware snapshot spanning the entire host machine and an unlimited number of guest machines in a Hyper-V environment, customers experience the fastest backup and restore process of the entire host, individual virtual machines or specific files within virtual machines compared to traditional backup and disaster recovery technologies.

“Other backup and recovery solutions simply didn’t scale as well as AppAssure’s Replay,” said Brendan Hourihan, technology services network engineer at Flagler College in St. Augustine FL. “Before we switched to Replay, we were consuming 9.6TB of backup storage space every two weeks. Now with Replay, we’ve used just over 1.5TB in the same time period, saving 84% storage space due to Replay’s advanced de-duplication and compression. That translated into a savings of several thousand dollars per year to our organization. That’s a very real ROI.”

While there’s undeniable movement away from agent-based backup in virtual machines, people are expanding their view of backup to encompass data protection as a whole, whether that means recovering an individual file or mailbox message, to replicating entire hosts at an disaster recovery site, said Chris Wolf, a senior analyst at the Burton Group.

Because traditional backup and recovery solutions require separate backup and recovery processes for Hyper-V host machines and each individual guest server, restoring a server or the entire environment can take several hours.

In contrast, AppAssures Replay 4 performs a single application-aware snapshot spanning the entire host machine and an unlimited number of guest machines, enabling a much faster backup and restore. In addition, companies can implement Replay 4 on a host machine and all guests through a single license, dramatically reducing backup and recovery costs in Hyper-V environments.

AppAssures approach to backup and disaster recovery of virtual machines running Hyper-V is extremely innovative, said Greg Shields, Founding Partner, Concentrated Technology and Microsoft MVP. Any organization leveraging Microsofts Hyper-V virtualization technology can benefit greatly from implementing Replay 4 as their backup and disaster recovery solution.

Customers using AppAssures Replay in Hyper-V environments experience the following benefits:

aNb Media Joins Winner"s Circle in Microsoft Acqua Contest


Hoboken, New Jersey (Vocus) October 4, 2010

aNb Media, a toy-tester and licensing company with national publications has claimed one of the runner-up spots in Microsofts recent Acqua contest. The contest sought out small businesses that needed a technology make-over. eMazzanti Technologies, the firms IT support consultant, nominated the toy industry publisher for the contest. aNb Media was one of five who took top honors in the overall competition. For more information about the Microsoft Acqua contest and winners, see:

http://www.igniteyoursmallbusiness.com/contests/acqua/Pages/default.aspx?said=10

Our best guess was that we were losing up to $ 200,000 per year in productivity because of a hodge-podge of disparate technologies, noted Jim Silver, editor-in-chief, aNb Media. After two years in business, we needed to re-think and re-do the way we were using computers.

Disparate Technologies Create Productivity Problems

As aNb Media grew to 13 people, the firms network, was a jumble of old and newer computers, mixed operating systems, and different software versions just a few of the problems slowing down aNb Medias work flow. Other technology-related issues such as ineffective firewalls, spam filters, slow internet access and sporadic failure of backup-protection dramatically impeded productivity in and out of the office. The technology problems also flooded employee computers and mobile devices with spam. The end result: IT issues were costing the company hundreds of thousands of dollars annually and hurting their public outreach efforts as well.

New IT Super Hero Sought

Though aNb Media had an existing IT partner, the company was not solving the problems that persisted within the toy publishers operation. It decided to start the search for a new IT super-hero consultant by interviewing three firms, eMazzanti Technologies being one of the candidates. eMazzanti was hired on the spot. We had three reasons to hire eMazzanti: they came highly recommended by their clients, immediately won our trust with their knowledge and talked specific solutions to problems noted, said Silver.

Super Solutions Delivered

eMazzanti Technologies solved spam and email virus problems with its MXINSPECT email protection service, delivered 24×7 support as needed and provided seamless, automatic backup. These services make it easier for aNb Media to maintain its network, protect intellectual property and files as well as collaborate and share information more efficiently.

eMazzantis MXINSPECT email filter solution instantly removed 99 percent of the spam from our network and mobile devices, said Silver. That alone gave us back 13 man-hours a day valued at more than $ 13,000 per month.

eMazzanti also repaired and updated aNb Medias existing tape backup system that had been non-functional for periods of up to 60 days. The companys entire operation is now more secure against catastrophic data loss due to internal or external related disasters. In less than 10 minutes, eMazzanti had sized up our key IT problems and proposed solutions, said Silver. No other IT consultant even came close to grasping our situation and providing real answers to our problems.

About eMazzanti Technologies

With a company name that sounds more like a purebred, high-performance sports car than a IT support and consulting firm, eMazzanti Technologies is all about delivering powerful solutions such as computer network management, network troubleshooting, business continuity and disaster recovery, green computing, mobile workforce technology, information security and business information optimization in the most efficient manner possible. The Hoboken, N.J., firm is located in one of the most densely populated – and competitive – regions in the U.S. It provides business technology consulting services for companies ranging from home offices to multinational corporations throughout the New York metropolitan area and in three countries.

Dealer Performance Group Selects ProviDyn for Microsoft SBS and Private Cloud Services

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 01, 2012

ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses, announced today that it was recently selected by Dealer Performance Group (DPG), a finance and insurance agency providing automotive benefits,services, and F&I/ compliance training to over 600 automotive dealerships in the Southeast, to evaluate and make recommendations for the agencys network infrastructure.

Working with other managed service providers left DPG with a network built on disparate systems and support that was unreliable and slow. Frustrated with this outcome, the agency enlisted ProviDyn to conduct an in-depth evaluation of its technology needs from top to bottom and make recommendations for improvements. After a thorough assessment, ProviDyn recommended Microsoft Small Business Server (SBS) as an all-in-one network solution that would give the agency access to enterprise-class server technology at an affordable cost. In addition, ProviDyn migrated DPG to a private cloud, giving the agency the added bonus of cost effectively accessing and sharing information.

ProviDyn was able to come in, quickly understand our business and make recommendations that would meet our immediate and long-term needs, said Hal Schmidt, CFO of Dealer Performance Group. The combination of Microsoft SBS and the private cloud allowed us to move past the infrastructure issues we were facing and gave us the peace of mind to focus on the business while knowing our technology needs were being handled by ProviDyn, a partner we could trust.

Microsofts SBS is an ideal solution for small businesses facing the day-to-day challenges of growing while also maintaining a reliable IT infrastructure with limited IT knowledge, said Hamish Davidson, president and co-founder of ProviDyn. For Dealer Performance Group specifically, SBS allowed them to gain the major components of a corporate infrastructure without the time and cost they would have spent otherwise.

About ProviDyn

ProviDyn provides technology expertise, services and support to Atlanta-area small and medium-sized businesses. Backed by certified technology professionals, ProviDyns services include managed services, cloud computing solutions, virtualization, help desk and computer support, IT strategy, network security, backup and disaster recovery and IP telephony.

The Microsoft Partner Awards recognize Microsoft partners that have developed and delivered exceptional Microsoft-based solutions during the past year.

Winning Solution-Professional Services Deployment

Part of the requirement each Microsoft Partner of the Year entrant had to demonstrate was an actual customer deployment so a professional services client was a perfect candidate for a powerful Microsoft solution.

Deployed a Single OS environment

The professional services firm ran on a variety of client operating systems, including several versions of the Windows operating system. On the server side, it ran Red Hat Linux. Maintaining this mixed infrastructure was a challenge. As none of the desktop or laptop computers were locked down, employees could easily go onto the Internet and inadvertently download malicious software that would slow, corrupt, or crash their PCs.

Designed a new IT Infrastructure

eMazzanti played a strategic role in helping this professional services client to design a new IT infrastructure, and then played a tactical role in managing that infrastructure on a daily basis with a fixed fee maintenance and support plan, called eCare Network Management.

Replaced Hard to Maintain Open Source Servers

Central to the overhaul of the companys infrastructure was the replacement of the Red Hat Linux server with Windows Server. The company had been attracted by the Linux no-charge licensing model, but when it came time to reconsider the firms server platform, the firm rejected an expansion of the Linux environment. The move to Windows Server made it possible for the professional services firm to adopt Windows Server Terminal Services, now called Remote Desktop Services. With Remote Desktop Services, the personal computers became thin clients for a centrally run operating environment in which all processing takes place, eliminating most, if not all, of the issues generated by the unlocked PCs.

New Powerful Email Solution

Along with the Windows Server deployment, eMazzanti Technologies helped the professional services firm bring its e-mail system in-house. The hosted UNIX-based e-mail service was replaced with a deployment of Microsoft Exchange Server.

New Backup and Disaster Recovery Solution

The next step was the creation of a backup and disaster-recovery solution. A backup server was installed to which production servers back up files every 15 minutes. The backup server, in turn, sends its files on a continuous basis to an offsite disaster-recovery location. The service-level agreement that the professional services firm has with eMazzanti promises that a failed server will be brought back to production status within predetermined time with the eMazzanti eCare Business Continuity platform.

On the desktop side, eMazzanti Technologies upgraded the computers for this professional services firm to the latest Windows platform. Firm members are taking advantage of the new operating systems intuitive navigation, enhanced power management features, and new document management capabilities.

Simple Cloud Network Management

Managing the entire network is streamlined with the use of Microsofts Cloud online services like InTune. In this offering through a single web-based console, all of the network PC assets can be managed, maintained and securedfrom virtually anywhere.

Overall, eMazzanti deployed a new operating system, Office suite and several different servers to:
