Asigra Inc., a technology leader in agentless backup and recovery software for enterprises and service providers targeting the growing managed storage services market, and DS3 DataVaulting, a provider of online data backup and recovery vaulting services, today announced a partnership which will deliver high-performance managed backup services to VARs, resellers and service providers throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico.
DS3 DataVaulting's managed backup offering will allow channel partners to take advantage of growing end-user demand for outsourced data protection. DS3 DataVaulting managed backup will enable channel partners to protect corporate data assets across the entire enterprise including workstations, file servers, databases, and email systems. The Asigra-powered service replaces tape-based manual backup for fast recovery of lost information in the event of system downtime. Secure remote backups and restores are performed by DS3 DataVaulting using the Internet or through dedicated high-throughput WAN connections, depending upon customer requirements. Customer data is vaulted in secure, fault-tolerant AT&T data centers that are managed by DS3 DataVaulting.
"Consistently providing our channel partners with high-value products and services is core to our mission," said Bob Stegner, Senior Vice President, Marketing for North America at SYNNEX Corporation. "Asigra and DS3 DataVaulting have demonstrated expertise in managed backup and through our relationship we are now offering our channel partners a strong managed backup service capability."
"DS3 DataVaulting was founded on the premise that the customer is king and quality is key to ensuring top level customer satisfaction. Beyond our proven technology and processes, we are building upon that foundation to support the channel in delivering high quality services to its customers," said Stacy Hayes, chief operating officer for DS3 DataVaulting. "We are excited to work with industry leaders like SYNNEX Corporation and look forward to meeting the demands of the channel as more customers shift to managed backup solutions."
