What’s in a Stack
Case Study: Hxxx Yxxx
• Industry: Retail• Background: Small family owned HVAC shop. Current CTL customer with 5
locations.• Solution/Products Sold: Hosted Exchange. 220 Exchange users, • Why Customer Bought/Factors: Customer needed to free up limited internal IT
resources, was spending to much time on maintaining their premises MS exchange server. Also did not want to purchase latest MS Exchange 2010 and load it on a
new server

Evolution of Memory Storage
Top Uses for IaaS Object Cloud Storage
Archive items static in nature to meet retention and regulatory policies, ensure data integrity over time.
Prevent data loss in the event of hardware failure. Redundant data center availability can ensure data is available at any time.
Top industries: - Legal- Healthcare- Software developers
Archive Data
Back up Data
Case Study: Cxxxxxx Medical Center
• Industry: Medical• Background: Multi-location regional hospital with a single datacenter.• Solution/Products Sold: Savvis Cloud Storage with Riverbed Whitewater cloud
storage gateway.• Why Customer Bought/Factors: Customer knew they needed a better solution to
store patient information than a non-redundant SAN/Tape system at a single, non-hardened datacenter. They did not have the budget or staff to build a redundant in-house solution. They were concerned with maintaining regulatory compliance (HIPPA) with an outsourced solution. Cloud Storage became a compelling solution for them when combined with the Riverbed Whitewater appliance. Cloud storage offered scalable, resilient infrastructure with predictable costs, while the Riverbed Whitewater, because it integrates seamlessly with the Savvis Storage API and existing customer backup systems, was able to assuage their regulatory concerns by assuring data integrity, in-flight and at-rest encryption, and detailed logging of data transfers.
• Does (what customer does with our product): Allows the customer to meet the data integrity and retention component of their regulatory requirements while maintaining the privacy and security components of this same regieme.
• Means (what “Does” means to the customer): Customer’s crucial patent
records are securely backed up while maintaining regulatory compliance.

reliable tier one carrier that could offer them the level of service required by their business. Adding in the VPDC solution offered higher availability for their most mission critical of application’s.
• Does (what customer does with our product): Standardized data network at all their offices. Access hosted family practice Application via VPDC(Cloud) and the MPLS network.
