Shipping Company Halves Data Backup Time, Lowers Costs, Boosts Dependability
Overview Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) USA is a subsidiary of a Geneva, Switzerland - based shipping company that operates 352 container vessels worldwide. The 10-person MSC USA IT infrastructure staff manages the data, computers, and network for 1,200 staff in 26 U.S. offices, and there is never enough time in their days. To shortcut the major time drain surrounding daily data backup and file recovery, MSC deployed Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2007, a disk-and-tape backup solution. IT staff has watched backup times drop by 50 percent and has recaptured at least 10 hours a week through easier backups and faster file recoveries. Most important, MSC data is more reliably safeguarded by a disk-based backup solution that is independent of slower tape systems.
