Fujitsu, a leading provider of ICT-based business solutions, has launched its latest channel promotion for its Eternus disk storage system.

On sale through December 31, a special bundle of hardware and software is available globally excluding Japan at a special price, allowing channel partners to offer competitive deals to their small- and medium-sized business customers, a statement said.

Under the slogan “Eternus for business continuity,” this promotion was created to support channel partners in times when the economy is heading for an upturn again and companies are ready to make necessary investments, it added.

The complete disaster recovery solution features asynchronous and synchronous storage-based replication between two Eternus DX90 disk storage systems with Eternus SF remote copy licenses.

The solution already includes storage management software at no extra cost; it can be run on Windows-based host system. In addition to that, a customer can combine this storage solution with a Primergy RX or TX server unit from Fujitsu, which is also an optional part of the bundle.

This low maintenance, cost-effective approach to remote data protection, recovery, and migration, significantly reduces the burden of meeting modern data retention policies and compliance testing associated with government regulations, according to the statement.

“With our reliable, high-performance Eternus portfolio now being a constant on a global level, we are happy to offer the benefit of this attractive promotion to our channel partners all around the world”, said Chandan Mehta, product manager, Fujitsu Technology Solutions.

“Disaster recovery is a top issue in every market in the world, as small and medium-sized enterprises have to cope with data retention policies and compliance rules.”

“Our channel partners are the first point of contact and the competent consultants for their customers when it comes to questions of data protection and storage – and we will support them in every possible way to have the right solution ready for this kind of business needs,” he added.

Introduced in January, the Eternus DX90 model with the Eternus SF Express management software provides storage-based data replication capabilities to Fujitsu's entry-level disk storage system line-up for business continuity, the statement said. – TradeArabia News Service
