Data Storage and Network Backup Solutions

Businesses face the challenge of managing increasing amounts of data. Every business operates with some level of dependence on the need to access, back up and recover their critical business information. 

ACR can help you meet that challenge by defining or fine-tuning your data storage environment. Our offerings include innovative, proven storage technologies that deliver superior backup, recovery and archiving capabilities. You can rely on us to recommend an ideal storage solution and then support you every step of the way, from selection to integration to ongoing support. Our field of experience includes: 

• Tape backup
• SAN / NAS (storage area network/network attached storage)
• Disaster recovery
• Disk-to-Disk
• Backup Software
• Emerging storage technologies

Looking beyond your basic storage requirements, ACR can introduce you to the latest in storage technologies for your business. These emerging technologies, such as data deduplication and tiered storage, offer significant cost advantages over traditional data storage and recovery techniques. 

Data deduplication works by identifying redundant files and data as they are being stored on disks. Deduplication technology can reduce the storage footprint by a factor of 10x-30x, on average, than the original data set. Additionally, backup data can be efficiently replicated and retrieved over existing networks for streamlined disaster recovery and consolidated tape operations. This means that you realize huge efficiency gains and can dramatically reduce your investment in disk storage. 

Storage virtualization provides virtualization at the disk level, accelerating data access by spreading read/write operations across all disk drives in the SAN so multiple requests are processed in parallel. Storage virtualization allows administrators to create high performance, highly efficient virtual volumes in just seconds without allocating drives to specific servers, without complicated capacity planning and without performance tuning. The resulting benefits of reduced management and administration will go right to your bottom line!
