IRVINE--- MTI Technology Corporation Implements Application Recovery Management Solution for City of Birmingham
MTI Technology Corporation (NASDAQ:MTIC) , a multi-national information and infrastructure solutions provider, today announced it was selected to ensure applications and data recoverability for the City of Birmingham, Alabama. MTI implemented Restore-Illuminator within the City of Birmingham's IT environment, providing an active audit of the recoverability of applications and servers, and the detection of recovery issues before they occur.
"For the City of Birmingham, keeping the police department, city payroll, municipal courts, fire department and other vital city services that rely on our IT infrastructure, up and running is crucial," stated Bobby Dorr, Deputy Director of IMS, City of Birmingham. "MTI was able to come in and run a pilot program with Illuminator, which immediately identified file systems and applications within our IT environment that were not being properly backed up. MTI's solution allows us to actively monitor the thoroughness of our data protection, so issues can be fixed before they impact our recoverability should a failure or disaster occur."
As part of MTI's broad backup and recovery solutions offering, Restore-Illuminator provides comprehensive application recovery management capabilities by performing dozens of checks and correlations between production application storage and data protection environments. Restore-Illuminator fully documents enterprise application recoverability, pin-pointing the root cause of recoverability gaps, which allows problems to be quickly fixed before there is a failure.
"The City of Birmingham's IT administrators were faced with the common dilemma of how to ensure that their information assets were properly being backed up in an ever changing application environment," said Rich Bocchinfuso, chief technology office for MTI. "Using the Restore-Illuminator application, MTI is able to provide the City with a consistent process to detect, investigate and resolve exposures, ranging from unprotected assets to backup failures and configuration errors from a single easy to navigate recovery management dashboard. Additionally, Restore-Illuminator's tight integration with leading backup applications like EMC's Networker, which the City uses as their backup solution makes for a highly reliable and robust solution."
