Carnegie Mellon University Named Winner at Storage Networking World
Fall; National Instruments Receives Honorable Mention SAN DIEGO,
Oct. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Exponential data growth from
multiple ongoing robotics projects led the National Robotics
Engineering Center at Carnegie Mellon University to implement
Overland Storage (NASDAQ:OVRL) disk- and tape-based data storage
solutions to speed its backups. The Center received the Best
Practices in Storage Award at Storage Networking World Fall last
week for the successful implementation of its backup environment.
Jonathan Woytek, computing manager for the Center, led the
installation of Overland's NEO 4100 automated tape library and REO
4000 and REO 9000 disk-based backup and recovery appliances to
create an easily expandable solution for data backup. The ability
to scale storage capacity quickly and easily topped the list of
Woytek's selection criteria. The Center manages an average of 15
research projects simultaneously, each creating anywhere from a few
hundred gigabytes to 12 terabytes of critical data. "The
opportunity to leverage our existing Overland NEO tape library with
a complementary disk-based solution for comprehensive D2D2T backup
and recovery was extremely appealing," Woytek said. "NEO expedited
our tape backups while REO gave us 'on-the-fly' capacity expansion
and helped take our D2D2T backup and recovery to the next level."
Also benefiting from Overland's disk and tape products is National
Instruments. The leader in virtual instrumentation received an
honorable mention for increasing its backup and recovery while
lowering media costs using Overland's REO 4000 and NEO 8000 to
serve the growing storage requirements of their 3,500 employees in
40 countries. Benefits of a combined REO/NEO implementation include
simplified, centralized storage management; accelerated backup and
recovery operations; extensive expandability; and flexibility to
conduct backups on disk and then migrate to tape for complete
disk-to-disk-to-tape data protection. Overland's REO SERIES(TM)
provides fast, reliable and feature-rich disk-based backup and
recovery. Every REO appliance comes with Protection OS(TM)
software, which delivers embedded data protection intelligence
including virtualization, management and connectivity features. The
Overland NEO SERIES(R) automated tape libraries provides reliable
data protection with nonstop operation, expansion on demand,
investment protection, remote library management, and on and two
gigabyte per second serverless backup in a SAN environment. For
