Future of Backup
Traditional backup vendors (Symantec, IBM, EMC, CA and others) continue to play a significant role in the backup and recovery market. But the pressure to innovate and offer a range of recovery options has escalated, because new market requirements are forcing customers to look at non-traditional technologies and solutions.
A new industry paradigm shift is finally catching up, with virtualization and public/private cloud computing. Traditional methodologies to backup and recover data are unable to deliver a unified platform that addresses customer needs in a holistic framework aligned with this paradigm shift. Asigra delivers one integrated solution.
Asigra’s mandate is agility—in responding to the requirements of the users of backup and recovery software, and to those of the channel partners who deliver the solutions to end-users. For Asigra, it’s all about ensuring that the backup solution we offer meets the IT requirements being dictated by the new world order encompassing Virtualization, Private/Public Cloud Computing, Green IT, and the paradigm shifts to come.
