Fujitsu Helped by EVault

Fujitsu Technology Solutions offers business customers of all sizes a fail-proof, global cloud-based backup and recovery service, with the availability of its Backup as a Service (BaaS).

Incorporating EVault, Inc.‘s technology, BaaS is agile, scalable, simple to use and with end-to-end security it provides safe storage for sensitive business data. This offering is a component in the company’s end-to-end cloud portfolio, which is designed to provide businesses to modernize IT structures.

Organizations need to navigate changing and complex backup and recovery requirements, and so they are looking for solutions that provide flexibility on data location and storage. BaaS combines technology from Fujitsu and EVault to offer choices for companies seeking reliable backup that supports the changing regulatory requirement landscape as well as multiple traditional and cloud platforms.

BaaS enables organizations to deploy hybrid cloud backup strategies, that manage both cloud-based and traditional on-premise data and, which also meet the compliance and protection requirements they face. Customers can now store and retrieve their data from servers, databases and whole systems, and store it to a defined Fujitsu Cloud IaaS Trusted Public S5 data center. In the near future they also will have the flexibility to store their data at additional locations, for example onsite in their own data center and the possibility to create backups from their client devices.

The service is available on demand via a self-service portal or as a managed service and will be delivered from Fujitsu Cloud IaaS Trusted Public S5. Fujitsu BaaS gives customers control to monitor and manage backups, store and optimize backup data and enable rapid and effective recovery.

Taking advantage of EVault
backup and recovery technology, BaaS can help:

• Reduce costs – based on a monthly subscription with no minimum commitment to ensure that customers pay according to their usage and actual growth.
• Secure data – with high level of protection – including military-grade encryption for all data, both in transit and at rest.
• Reduce backup times – by taking advantage of advanced WAN-optimization backup technology to ensure efficient use of bandwidth.
• Optimize storage footprint – the entire dataset is captured on the first backup, with only changed blocks captured on subsequent backups.
• Reduce management complexity – with a self-service portal that makes it easy to configure backup schedules, select retention periods, view job progress and alerts – and perform restores.
• Flexibility – by taking advantage of a monthly subscription service that can be scaled as data grows, reducing capital expenditure and TCO.

Cameron McNaught, EVP, solutions, international business, Fujitsu, said: "Our clients recognize that cloud-based services can offer significant improvements in agility and cost-savings but they also require flexibility in adopting cloud services so they can meet their individual needs. A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work, which is why a hybrid approach to backup services is so important. EVault’s solutions make it the perfect partner for delivering Backup as a Service and so sustain our commitment to our customers to provide choice and agility through the Fujitsu cloud service offerings."

The service is available from Fujitsu cloud IaaS Trusted Public S5, and can be ordered via a portal.
