Back-up Exec
East Central Missouri Behavioral Health Services, Inc. is a rural community mental health center located in Mexico, MO. We have used Backup Exec. donated by Symantec to back-up our patient and organizational data to store off-site as an emergency back-up of data. It has been a great tool for us as part of our compliance efforts with HIPAA. Thanks to Symantec for their support of not-for-profits! Terry
NetBackup excellence
There are no doubts that automated data backup technologies are very important for today’s human civilization. This statement is not hyperbolized; per contra it is the known fact.
These technologies help to save money, time, and above all, our common Home – Earth.
Lets’ see how they do it!
Money. Money is not only the unit of somebodies wealth expression, money is also a measure of efficient resource management. Information today – one of the most valuable resources. You have to handle resources correctly. Just as there are oil storages to keep oil, data centers are deployed everywhere in companies to save the employees labor. Data center without proper software is the expensive trinket. Besides the sudden data crash will waste numerous hard-working days of many thousands, that together with the financial losses will result in additional time required to eliminate the accident and recover the data lost.
So we reached the time issue. Yes, time is closely connected with finances. Typically, money loss entails the loss of time and vice versa. Just imagine how many employees need to ensure the safety of corporate data manually? How much time they will spend together, and what will be the probability of errors? Automated data backup technologies usage eliminates these difficulties.
Natural resources – this is how much we eat, drink, consume energy and mineral resources to achieve the goal. There is more than one way to gain the same result. Purpose is to choose low-cost, shortest and the most resource saving way. Automated data backup technologies usage for each company replaces hundreds of people doing monotonous every-day work, again saving money, time and natural resources.
Can you see the direct relationship between money, time, natural resources and the ability to handle and store information?
I see.
Also, as employee of BOCADA Corporation (that produces monitoring tools for the variety of backup products); I know that Symantec software meets the demands of even the most discerning customers who have thousands of data servers. Personally, I have experience with the NetBackup product. It deals with backup tasks perfectly and also has a convenient command line interface that allows retrieving necessary backup status information in accessible form. Taken together, these NetBackup qualities again save money, time, and allow spending fewer resources to solve huge problems.
With the best wishes,
Nicholas Loshchinin
