Data Backup Digest

Let's face it, the state of New Jersey isn't exactly known for its presence in the data storage niche. However, a new and quickly growing IT service company hopes to change all that. Headquartered in Addison, IL, the team with ITsavvy has recently expanded their presence with a brand new data center in the city of Cedar Knolls, N.J.

Building and developing a new data center at the location in Cedar Knolls was no small project. However, ITsavvy is already promising 99.999% guaranteed uptime and data accessibility. Moreover, their customer support team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year.

Mike Theriault, CEO and president with ITsavvy, spoke about the need for such a facility in the region. He was quoted as saying: "From just about every standpoint; storage, security, backup, disaster recovery and sheer performance, we are convinced the Cedar Knolls Data Center is nearly unrivaled in the Manhattan area."He continued his statement by saying: "Our single-minded goal was to make the Cedar Knolls Data Center a world-class facility—a place where our client executives are proud to bring their clients and prospects."

Primary Features

There are a number of primary features associated with the new data center. For starters, the site provides redundant Internet connectivity through the use of several Tier 1 carriers. Redundant power ensures accessibility around the clock, and multi-redundant cooling systems ensure the equipment is running at optimum temperatures.

Given the recent emphasis on industry compliance, the team with ITsavvy has also taken steps to ensure compliance with HIPAA, HITECH, SSAE 16 and PCI DSS 3.0. The data center is also certified via Safe Harbor and SOC 1.0 / 2.0.

ITsavvy called on an expert team of IT engineers who specialize in the fields of data backup, disaster recovery and general data storage. By using some of the best hardware available, including the HPE Blade Center, a Pure Storage all-flash array and various hardware from the likes of Cisco and EMC, the team was able to build a cutting edge data center that aims to take care of all their customers' needs.

Moreover, since many of these team members have their own certifications from Microsoft, HP, Citrix and Cisco, customers can take solace in the fact that their data is being looked after by some of the most knowledgeable experts in the IT industry today. This simple peace of mind can go a long way when it comes to attracting new customers, luring customers away from the competition and even maintaining their own customers on a long-term basis.
