EMC has further extended the connectivity and flexibility of its Symmetrix Enterprise Storage systems with the introduction of EMC CopyPoint software.
The new offering extends EMC`s business continuity capabilities in AS/400 environments. By allowing AS/400 systems to read secondary copies of production system data, CopyPoint enables customers to take greater advantage of EMC`s premier business continuity software: EMC TimeFinder and Symmetrix Remote Data Facility (SRDF).
"The ability to conduct business around the clock has become essential to compete in today`s global marketplace," says Hugh Wason, country manager of EMC SA. "Customers can now rely on EMC Enterprise Storage to further leverage their AS/400 information resources and ensure that planned procedures and potential interruptions do not hinder revenue generating operations." With EMC CopyPoint software, working in conjunction with TimeFinder and/or SRDF, Symmetrix Enterprise Storage provides virtually uninterrupted 24-hour, 7-day production level support to AS/400 environments. By utilising multiple copies of corporate information, which reside either on the same storage system or at a second remote system, all AS/400 business-critical production operations continue while secondary procedures such as point-in-time backups, batch processing, application testing, and data warehouse loading occur in parallel.
