Infinidat Chosen by Banco Multiva in Mexico

Infinidat Ltd announced that Banco Multiva SA, a premiere financial institution in Mexico, uses its InfiniBox as its storage platform for data protection, DR and asynchronous replication between storage systems.

With InfiniBox, Multiva streamlined and scaled its storage architecture to meet the needs of the company’s most data-intensive workloads.

“Prior to Infinidat, we had a complex and unreliable storage architecture with dispersed data and low application performance. We spent more time managing problems with our storage than we did focusing on business innovation,” said Juan Muñoz Vela, IT infrastructure director, Multiva. “After researching alternative vendor options, it became evident that InfiniBox’s application performance and seven nines reliability couldn’t be beat. The InfiniBox was easy to deploy and it allows our IT team to shift their focus away from the time-consuming tasks associated with day-to-day storage administration and instead spend it on other customer and business success activities.“

As a growing financial institution, Banco Multiva requires a storage partner that offers scalability to handle data sprawl and also data protection. The InfiniBox delivers these capabilities without sacrificing performance or reliability.

“Banco Multiva was the first of a rapidly growing number of customers in Mexico,” said Adrian Flores, Mexico and LATAM regional manager, Infinidat. “As a financial institution, Multiva relies on Infinidat not only for cost savings, but a strong sense of trust, vision and above all, true innovation.“

“We rely on our storage systems to do the heavy lifting when it comes to maintaining our databases. For us to keep pace with our customers’ growing workload demands, we require more than just another data repository; we need high-performance storage that’s agile, affordable and simple to use. The InfiniBox has delivered on each of these needs. Its intuitive design, and use of machine learning algorithms, has not only enabled ultra-high performance at a low-cost, but has also brought a new level of functionality and simplicity to our data center. Since deploying the InfiniBox, we’ve seen a 40% increase in application performance,” said Michel Bouffier, CTO, Multiva.

InfiniBox eliminates the traditional compromises between reliability, cost and performance at scale for enterprise storage. With the capabilities necessary to support the performance intensive workloads of the modern data center, it allows financial institutions to spend more time helping customers and scaling their business and less on managing storage.

In March, Infinidat announced four new products aimed at enterprises seeking to accelerate digital transformation and drive cost out of their IT infrastructure. One of these products is the latest version of the company’s InfiniBox, the F6212, that includes 8.3PB of effective capacity. Company’s product portfolio also includes InfiniSync, a ballistically hardened BC appliance that is a solution for zero RPO synchronous data mirroring over virtually infinite distance, with zero latency impact; Neutrix Cloud, a sovereign public storage cloud that offers performance, multi-petabyte cloud file systems and block volumes that are simultaneously accessible from Google, Azure and AWS compute clouds; and InfiniGuard, an application-aware data protection appliance that stores up to 20PB of data and provides fast restores.
