Iscor invests in Storage Area Network from Datacentrix


Johannesburg, 04 Apr 2002

South African steel company, Iscor has selected Datacentrix to roll out a R3.1 million Storage Area Network (SAN) solution to ensure better performance from the organisation`s back-up environment.

"The solution will assist Iscor in easily managing its data growth, provide central management and facilitate access to data," says Christo Briedenhann from Datacentrix. "It will also ensure that the data is secured on the proper backup media."

The project, which kicks off at the end of February, incorporates the implementation of a number of HP products, including Brocade switches, a Surestore Virtual Array 7400 disk storage solution, HP`s Omniback application and a Surestore 6/60 tape library. It also includes HP Surestore Business Copy and Surestore Secure Manager software modules for the management of data on the disk side.

Says Briedenhann: Datacentrix has the skills to design a technology route map to take Iscor in to the future. The establishment of a focused storage division within our company also demonstrates our commitment to the global storage boom and shows that Datacentrix is capable to meet the storage needs of local businesses."
