Polaris Software Shrinks Costs, Lead Times, and Time to Recovery by Consolidating on Network Appliance

Overview Polaris Software Lab is a leading provider of products and solutions for banking, financial services, and insurance companies. An outdated IT infrastructure with direct-attached storage and site-specific backup and recovery systems jeopardized the company's ability to introduce and ramp up IT services, meet stringent SLAs, and keep pace with a 70% CAGR. After detailed competitive analyses, Polaris selected a high-availability NetApp solution for data consolidation and high-speed Disk-to-Disk (D2D) backup and recovery. Lotus Notes messaging and file services are now consolidated on clustered NetApp FAS940 systems deployed at all major Polaris facilities.
