Apache Corporation Energizes Exploration With NetApp Storage and Disk-to-Disk Backup

Overview With $23B in assets, Apache Corporation is one of the world's top independent oil and gas exploration and development companies. The company wanted to implement a storage architecture to meet performance demands of seismic processing and cluster-based computing; enable remote-office backup and off-site data protection for global enterprise; reduce costs. To tackle this challenge the company deployed a NetApp FAS series and NetApp NearStore solution with NetApp SnapVault software which delivers improved data availability to geoscientists, automated disk-to-disk backup of global sites, within-hours recoverability of terabytes of data, plus administrative savings.
