Cornell Lab of Ornithology Pairs Dell Servers With Intel Processor Technology, and Dell EqualLogic Storage to Save Six Figures

Cornell Lab of Ornithology needed a consistent backup and disaster recovery solution to protect terabytes of critical data amassed by researchers to further conservation and explore the biodiversity of the planet. Server sprawl also threatened the efficiency of IT operations. The Lab consolidated multiple backup systems on Dell EqualLogic iSCSI SANs for data protection and disaster recovery solutions that provide full recoverability of data. It also virtualized servers with VMware and Dell PowerEdge servers with Intel Xeon processors to eliminate server sprawl and improve manageability and efficiency.
