would hold 3.6 petabytes,” Giardina says.
“In contrast, our SAN cabinet holds just
800 TB. The Cisco and Veeam solution is
4.5 times more efficient.” Because iland
can store 2.2 times as much backup data
for the same price, cost per gigabyte is
55 percent less than before. Storing more
data in the same space also lowers data
center power and cooling costs.

“And our staff is already familiar with Cisco
UCS, so there’s very little extra management
overhead,” Giardina says. “We see right
away if there’s an issue with a disk, memory,
or processor.”

Customers are back in business in half
the time
Customers can get back to work quickly
if a virtual machine fails. For example, if a
virtualized mail server goes down, just one
click in iland’s self-service portal mounts
the backup file from the C3160 and
immediately starts the virtual machine.

“We can restore virtual machines faster
with UCS C3160 than we could with
SAN arrays,” Giardina says. The reason is
scalable processing power and fast I/O:
20Gbps. By comparison, the I/O for a
leading public cloud provider is 8Mbps.

Faster restores and lower costs attract
customers
The Veeam Cloud Connect service
has grown rapidly, and iland backs up
thousands of virtual machines—from 2 TB

customers looking for cloud backup care
about two things: SLAs and price,” says
Giardina. “The UCS C3160 is good for
business because we can restore virtual

competitive price.”

Moving backups off the SAN array also
improves availability. “If our whole production
SAN went away, customers could still
restore their virtual machines and data from
the Cisco UCS C3160,” says Giardina.

Hybrid clouds and even simpler
management
Now iland is preparing to offer new
services using its Cisco
services using its Cisco
®
Unified
Data Center solutions. One is hosting
OpenStack environments. Another is
backing up on-premises private clouds to
the C3160 using Cisco
OpenStack environments. Another is
backing up on-premises private clouds to
the C3160 using Cisco
®
Intercloud Fabric.
iland also plans to deploy the new Cisco
UCS S3260 storage optimized server,
which increases the efficiency of backup,
recovery, and archiving by moving more
data in less time.

Giardina concludes, “The Cisco Unified
Data Center gives us a scalable foundation
to introduce new services and serve more
customers. The UCS C3160 is a useful
new building block for cost-effective, fast
backups and restores. And adding the
UCS C3160 didn’t require us to learn a
new interface or talk to another vendor
for support.”
