Brocade, a provider of networked storage solutions has extended its File Area Network (FAN) offering by announcing enhanced solutions that enable organisations to simplify administration and control of their branch office file data.
The new Brocade Branch File Replication and Consolidation solutions claim to provide a simplified approach to the protection and management of files distributed across the enterprise—enabling fast remote access, centralised backup, enhanced resiliency, and improved business continuity.
“Enterprises can now affordably and easily integrate data management for all branch sites into a more simplified and centralised enterprise data management strategy,” said Tom Buiocchi, VP, Worldwide Marketing, Brocade. “By seizing control of their branch office data with Brocade solutions, enterprises can increase efficiencies, reduce costs, achieve tighter security, and improve business continuity.”
Brocade Branch File Solutions feature new products and services that give organisations the choice of consolidating branch office files at the data centre or replicating the files to the data centre for centralised backup and recovery.
The new solutions, like all Brocade FAN offerings, leverage Microsoft Windows-based technologies to provide seamless integration with enterprise Windows deployments.
