South Africa's National Airways Corporation Securing 20 Terabytes of Data in HP Autonomy Cloud

HP (NYSE: HPQ) - HP Autonomy today announced that Africa's largest
general aviation agency, National Airways Corporation (NAC), is
deploying HP Autonomy LiveVault to securely back up 20 terabytes of
company data.
NAC, a commercial aviation agency headquartered in Johannesburg,
provides a range of services for fixed-wing aircraft and
helicopters, including sales, maintenance, aircraft charter and
pilot training.
The HP Autonomy LiveVault platform will be used in a large-scale
deployment to secure approximately 100 servers across South Africa.
These servers are distributed across NAC's seven airports and
airfield sites, and data will be backed up securely to local
on-premises HP LiveVault Turbo-Restore Appliances and off-site to
secure geographically separated data centers across South
Africa.
"We chose HP Autonomy's LiveVault solution because it offered
proven scalability reliability and an attractive cloud and
on-premises hybrid approach," said Andrew McGurk, IT manager,
National Airways Corporation. "The ability to scale without much
capital outlay was particularly important to us, because we need to
protect such large quantities of data, which is being created in
numerous different sites across the country."
NAC was previously using disparate tape backup systems to
protect company data. The transition from a slow, complex and
manual on-site backup system to the hybrid deployment from HP
Autonomy will deliver increased reliability and speed for both the
backup and recovery processes. The combination of on-premises and
cloud backup locations means that NAC data will be secure and
accessible at all times.
"HP Autonomy offers an enterprise-grade intelligent backup
solution designed to handle the vast quantities of information that
organizations produce today," said David Jones, general manager,
Data Protection, HP Autonomy. "NAC is a prime example of why this
matters -- legacy backup technology simply cannot offer reliable
business continuity in the face of huge volumes of geographically
dispersed data."
