Transfreight Protects Mission Critical Applications With Zerto
Aimed at Toyota and Yamaha supply chains
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on October 19, 2012 at 2:49 pmZerto, Inc., an hypervisor-based replication solution provider, announced that Transfreight LLC has chosen Zerto Virtual
Replication (ZVR) for DR to support its applications.
Transfreight is a third-party logistics provider that
engineers customized lean supply chains for manufacturers such as
Toyota and Yamaha.
Transfreight implemented ZVR to protect several production
applications, including SQL Server, Great Plains, Exchange, TMW Suite, ADP and
Yard Smart. The applications were previously being replicated between two main
datacenters in Kitchener and Cambridge, and Transfreight required service levels to ensure no interruption to its North American
customers. ZVR was chosen due to its ability to failback to a single point in
time, its flexibility and scalability in the VMWare environment, and its
features and functionality for application recovery.
"With ZVR’s continuous
replication, we can achieve our required RPOs much
more simply and successfully than our previous replication technology allowed,"
said Tamas Nemeth, manager of IT systems, Transfreight. "Zerto provides a virtual and seamless fail
over process, where our previous solution required team members to physically
be present at both the primary and DR site to coordinate a successful fail
over. The power and simplicity of ZVR, combined with the cost savings, made
them an easy choice for us."
Zerto provides enterprise virtual replication and BC
and DR solutions for both the data center and the cloud, providing the
flexibility for Transfreight to transition to the cloud in the future.
"Like many Zerto
customers, Transfreight demands a solution that is virtual aware and
cost-effective, yet powerful enough to deliver enterprise-class service levels,"
said Ziv Kedem, CEO, Zerto. "ZVR
delivers these advanced features while providing an easy on-ramp for the cloud,
a strong foundation they can execute upon when they are ready."
Zerto showcased its technology at VMworld Barcelona.
