Data backup solutions provider STORServer and cloud backup Web portal developer Front-safe have partnered up to deliver secure cloud backup and recovery services to managed service providers (MSPs) using public, private and hybrid clouds.
STORServer’s new MSP Appliance consists of a STORServer Backup Appliance installed at the datacenter of a certified MSP partner and Front-safe’s portal software, which manages and charges incoming customers.
End users buy the service through STORServer resellers, and the company then connects the orders to a certified MSP that provides first level support to the customer. STORServer offers support of Front-safe, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM), STORServer Console (SSC), and any necessary hardware to the MSP.
“This software makes it easier than ever for customers to use the cloud as a viable way to perform backup and recovery,” says Jarrett Potts, STORServer’s director of strategic marketing. “It’s easy to use and hides all complexities from the end users. All they need to see is the front-end of the portal, and that’s it.”
Built on IBM TSM, STORServer offers a complete suite of enterprise backup appliances, software and services that solve today’s backup, archive and disaster recovery challenges.
