FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Synopsys selects Bocada to achieve recoverability and cost objectives in data
protection.
Bocada Enterprise software helps Synopsys ensure compliance and data integrity while reducing cost of data protection.
Bellevue, WA, October 23, 2006 - Bocada, Inc., the recognized leader in data protection management software, today announced that Synopsys, a world leader in semiconductor design software, has implemented the Bocada Enterprise platform to manage mission-critical data backup operations and achieve policy mandates for compliance.
To manage terabytes of data each day for business units across the corporation, the data protection services team at Synopsys saves time and reduces cost by leveraging Bocada software to automate delivery of information critical to data protection management. By mapping to Synopsys policy definitions, the Bocada Enterprise platform enables the data protection team to remedy failures within the mandate of 24 hours, and ensures continued data integrity and availability.
Prior to the implementation of Bocada, extensive manual problem identification and troubleshooting presented a major challenge for the data protection services team at Synopsys. &dlquo;We have a small window of opportunity to correct any backup errors,” said Pethuraj Perumal, Synopsys data protection services manager. &ldqou;Before Bocada, it would take more time than we would like to find the sources of backup error, let alone to actually fix them. As a result, we were at risk of losing data critical to the business and maintaining the compliance requirements of Synopsys’ business.”
Once the system was implemented, the Synopsys team realized immediate benefits. “Each night, the backup of two Network Appliance filers was occurring simultaneously, resulting in degradation of system performance, increased failures and window overruns due to the volumes of backup data,” said Pethuraj Perumal. After implementing the Bocada Enterprise platform, Synopsys was able to quickly identify the configuration errors, adjust the schedules and eliminate the impact on the system. “Bocada helps us see what we otherwise could not. Moreover, having this information allows us to provide better services to our customers while keeping our costs under control.”
“The mission of Bocada is to help great companies like Synopsys achieve data recoverability at the right cost, by enabling their data protection teams to accomplish their objectives,” said Nancy Hurley, vice president of marketing for Bocada. “We are proud that Synopsys, as well as more than 200 other leading enterprise customers rely on us to get the job done.”
