New Case Study

Non-profit medical association gets multicloud disaster recovery as a service with Datalink, NetApp and Equinix

A nonprofit medical association was looking to move its IT disaster recovery (DR) site far away from its production data center, and needed a more robust, resilient and “cloud-friendly” vendor-neutral data center location for its new DR infrastructure. It turned to Equinix, Datalink (an Insight Company) and NetApp to build a new, high-performance, secure, and highly available multicloud Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) infrastructure to reliably deliver its services to its members.

Equinix Fabric™ provided virtualized connections between the compute and storage DRaaS infrastructure and Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure and Office 365 platforms, increasing storage optimization.

We now have a significantly more resilient and robust disaster recovery infrastructure with five times more computing power, ultra-fast storage and unparalleled interconnection to multiple clouds at a nominal incremental cost.
