April 25, 2007, Burlington, MA - Acronis
Inc. (www.acronis.com/en-us/), a leading
provider of storage management software, announced today that it
joined the HP BladeSystem Solution Builder Program. Acronis True
Image Enterprise Server helps ensure the availability of data
for HP BladeSystem customers and is recognized as the leading
commercial disk-imaging backup and bare-metal restore solution for
blade-based servers. It can perform sector-based imaging as well as
file and folder backups of entire physical and virtual servers.
"Membership in the HP BladeSystem Solution
Builder Program further recognizes Acronis True Image's growing
popularity in enterprise environments," said Zorian Rotenberg,
director of business development for Acronis. "HP BladeSystem
customers can take advantage of the Acronis True Image management
components to better organize their disaster recovery plans and
ensure that their BladeSystem architectures are up and running in
minutes, not hours or days, if a systems failure occurs."
"Blade servers have become an important asset to
data center managers who are virtualizing their servers," said
Walter Scott, Acronis CEO. "With Acronis True Image Enterprise
Server and Acronis Universal Restore, they can easily move servers
from one hardware platform to another, be it physical or virtual.
Using blade servers as part of an overall virtualization strategy
not only makes good business sense, but it also opens up a variety
of options for backup and disaster recovery as well."
"Data recovery and backup is a key focus for our
customers today as they look to maximize their IT investments and
reduce data center complexity while keeping capital and operating
costs in check," said Michael Kendall, marketing manager,
BladeSystem Division, HP. "HP is pleased to have Acronis join the
Solution Builder community and have its enterprise-class data
recovery and backup solutions available for HP BladeSystem
customers."
