Big companies’ continuous struggle in the past  few years has been focusing mainly on the efficient management of data storage costs in relation to an always increasing volume of data, as well as on identifying the best storage solutions, making decisions on engaging or not into virtualization, assuring continuous availability of applications and last, but not least, on a permanent activity monitoring.

Asseco SEE’s solution, designed especially for Volksbank Romania, Driving Competitive Advantage VPLEX for Vmware availability in Volksbank, based on the EMC technology, responded to the customer’s requirements in terms of the assets’ utilization, migration from Production Site to DR Site, reutilization of existing assets, providing an architecture that guarantees future developments and reduction of downtime and operational risk. 

"As a result of the implementation of this project in partnership with Asseco SEE Volksbank Romania redesigned its future, having now the advantage of efficiently used operational and storage resources as well as an easy migration from the production site to the recovery center in case of disaster in less than 5 minutes.
