Televaulting plans to leapfrog across Pacific soon

Jul 07, 2005: Australian companies will soon be able to take advantage of software that backs up data stored in remote sites onto a central repository, whilst analysing it for duplicates and encrypting the information as it travels through the process.

Asigra, the provider of the Televaulting software, has signed up distributor Zycko to sell this agentless backup software in Australia. Asigra claims that the simple pay-as-you-grow pricing model attached to the software eliminates the licensing costs associated with conventional tape-based backup.

Eran Farajun, the executive vice president of Asigra, stated that the software is tested and certified compatible by leading infrastructures providers not take the place of data centre backup software, but to complement it for multi-site backup and recovery.

"As our latest distributor, Zycko will provide penetration into global marketplaces, enabling companies around the world to centrally backup and restore their mission-critical data across geographically dispersed locations.

"Zycko's success, knowledge and support in and of the channel make them an ideal partner for the distribution of our Televaulting solution."

Aisgra also outlined some of the other benefits of the technology, such as the reduction in worldwide IT management expenditures, compound reduction of both hardware/software capital and enterprise-wide license costs with 100 percent regulatory compliant data protection.

Its "pay-as-you-grow" compressed-capacity-based licensing model allows users to only pay for storage management. Customers pay an initial payment based on the amount of compressed data there is to protect. After that, they are charged per compressed terabyte of additional storage.
