Using the Isilon IQ X-Series, the University of Lubeck has created a central storage solution for all its medical and scientific departments, accelerating data access for researchers, faculty and students, while reducing storage management to less than one full-time equivalent (FTE). With Isilon scale-out NAS, the University of Lubeck can provide highly concurrent data access to hundreds of users without compromising data performance or reliability, increasing efficiency and productivity for its research and educational efforts.

"As our university continues to grow and expand the scope of both our research and education projects, we need a central storage resource that can unify data access for our wide array of academic and scientific operations," said Helge Illig, engineer, Institute for Medical Computer Science, University of Lubeck. "Isilon’s ability to centralize our file-based data and applications onto a single, easily scalable file system that requires very little hands-on management is an unbeatable advantage."

Working with Isilon value-added reseller RZNet AG, the University of Lubeck deployed Isilon IQ, featuring its OneFS operating system, to unify file-based data and applications for a range of medical, scientific and academic departments. Using Isilon’s SmartQuotas data management software, the University of Lubeck can easily provision its Isilon cluster across different user groups, providing highly concurrent data access to speed research and enable greater academic collaboration. Additionally, with Isilon’s SnapshotIQ data protection software, the university can take an unlimited number of data snapshots to ensure its critical information is always secure and immediately available.

"Across the globe, universities are centralizing IT operations to increase efficiency, reduce costs and improve productivity," said Mark Stevens, vice president and general manager for EMEA, Isilon Systems. "By using Isilon scale-out NAS to unify its file-based data onto a single, shared repository, the University of Lubeck is demonstrating that with Isilon IQ, it’s easy to centralize IT operations, accelerate data access and reduce costs."
