Irish MSP Triangle Rolls Out Cloud-Based Storage Services

Triangle Computer Services has rolled out cloud-based storage services that combines NetEx HyperIP WAN Optimization Virtual Appliance and the enterprise-class data protection of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager

Triangle chose HyperIP with Tivoli Storage Manager because they are foundational tools for MSPs building virtualized infrastructures to deploy cloud-based disaster recovery services. The solution enables MSPs to quickly add cloud-based services without heavy infrastructure startup costs.

Triangle's product offerings encompass a holistic virtualization environment and disaster recovery services that improves a customer's business processes. Combined, HyperIP and Tivoli Storage Manager lowers WAN bandwidth costs and enables end users to complete their backup operations faster. With Tivoli Storage Manager, Triangle reduced the backup windows over its WAN networks by 90 percent.

"Using HyperIP with IBM's Tivoli Storage Manager is a huge boost for our business as it gives our customers an extreme level of confidence and peace of mind that our disaster recovery solutions operates seamlessly to accelerate network data movement," said Richard O‚Brien, Managing Director at Triangle.

"HyperIP has been a game changer for MSPs selling into the Tivoli Storage Manager ecosystem with a virtual WAN optimizer that significantly accelerates backup, recovery, replication and migration with no bandwidth or infrastructure upgrades required," said Robert MacIntyre, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at NetEx.

The scalability of HyperIP with Tivoli Storage Manager makes the solution an option for MSPs such as Triangle that are building cloud infrastructures. Triangle also chose HyperIP for its recent Ready for IBM Tivoli validation. This IBM validation highlights the ability of HyperIP to support enterprise-class, client-server data protection solutions and ensures that the solution has been tested and validated on the IBM Tivoli Storage manager platform.

Ready for IBM Tivoli is an IBM designation for validating the integration of Independent Software Vendor and/or Business Partner solutions with Tivoli systems management technology. HyperIP virtual WAN optimizer earned the Ready for IBM Tivoli validation by meeting IBM specifications for integration with selected Tivoli product and technologies to provide end-to-end technology management functionality. NetEx's HyperIP is a VMware Ready virtual appliance that is for moving large data sets across WANs. Patent-pending technology accelerates data replication and file transfers by aggregating multiple applications over a shared connection, and mitigating network conditions that lead to poor application performance and throughput.
