Fujitsu Technology Solutions announces the Efficient Data Protection initiative, assuring businesses of all sizes that their data is safe, secured from threats and meets the requirements for all service level agreements (SLA). Efficient Data Protection takes backup, archiving and restore to the next level, providing a complete, cost-effective solution.



The Fujitsu Efficient Data Protection initiative combines best-in-class hardware, software, and services enabling customers across Europe, Middle East and Africa to create, implement and maintain Dynamic Infrastructures ideal to their unique Data Protection needs, including tiering storage according to its value. The initiative includes a comprehensive selection of more than 40 storage products, solutions and services from Fujitsu and partners.

Dr Helmut Beck, Vice President Storage Business at Fujitsu Technology Solutions says: “There are plenty of ways to lose data, for example following fire or flood, through human error, computer viruses, hardware failures and security breaches. Although IT staff have been dealing with data protection challenges for decades, in today’s environments data protection requirements have become much more complicated, for example with the growing popularity of server virtualization, and ever-shrinking backup windows.

“Fujitsu is focused on helping customers avoid the unpleasant and often severe consequences of losing their business-critical data. Because we are able to offer such a wide selection of solutions, our Efficient Data Protection initiative is designed to provide every customer with exactly what they need for protecting their data,” adds Dr Beck.

In addition to its own market-leading data protection products, such as the ETERNUS CS virtual tape appliance, Fujitsu’s Efficient Data Protection includes comprehensive best-in-class offerings from an extensive network of partners, creating flexible and future-proof solutions to suit customers’ current and future needs.

The Efficient Data Protection initiative includes the Fujitsu Data Protection Assessment Service, providing customers with right-first-time and therefore more cost-effective recommendations on the ideal data protection strategy for their individual requirements.

Says Dr Beck: “The effective protection and subsequent recovery of business-critical data is too important to be left to chance. You only realize what you have when you lose it. The Fujitsu Efficient Data Protection initiative is designed to make it easier for customers of all sizes to understand what needs to be done, what it involves, and where to begin with their data protection strategy.”
