Nupremis Selects Compaq StorageWorks as Preferred Provider For Data Center
Storage Solutions
LAS VEGAS and BOULDER, Colo., Nov 16, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Nupremis, Inc., a
full service outsource provider, announced that it has selected Compaq
StorageWorks as their preferred provider of storage solutions for its global
network of Internet Data Centers.
As a leading provider of outsourced applications hosting focused on the
broadband environment, Nupremis generates some of the industry's most demanding
storage requirements. Nupremis owns and operates a global applications
infrastructure that hosts, integrates and manages applications and content
services providing access to large, small and medium-sized businesses worldwide.
Compaq Computer Corporation (NYSE: CPQ) offers a full line of enterprise class
computing solutions. The AlphaServers/StorageWorks solutions and SAN management
applications are fully integrated and tested to plug and play harmoniously in an
open computing environment. A dedicated storage area network (SAN) provides a
robust backbone for geographically dispersed server operations, allowing shared
storage access across the enterprise. StorageWorks' modular design assures
investment protection, increased levels of availability, lower cost of storage
management and disaster tolerant solutions when downtime is not an option.
"Compaq's StorageWorks solutions offer Nupremis superior functionality across a
number of important dimensions: high availability, superior price performance,
manageability and total scalability," said Reed Ford, Senior Vice President of
Data Center Architecture at Nupremis. "In addition, Compaq's commitment to open
standards was an important factor in our decision."
Mr. Ford continued, "As we roll out our global network of data centers, the
flexibility of the Compaq architecture will play an important role in our
ability to deliver industry-leading customer responsiveness in an environment
where requirements can change within the hour. Nupremis chose Compaq because it
was confident StorageWorks could scale dynamically to meet these demanding
business requirements."
"As one of the global outsource providers positioned to capitalize on the growth
of this burgeoning market, Nupremis requires the most available, scalable and
powerful enterprise servers and storage in the marketplace," Darren Thomas, Vice
President, Multi-Vendor Storage Business Unit of Compaq. "The combination of
Compaq StorageWorks and AlphaServers enables Nupremis to accommodate rapid
growth and high traffic patterns with zero service disruptions."
