"MySQL has employees distributed globally in 19 different countries -- many of whom do not have IT staff in their offices," said Kaj Arno, MySQL's vice president responsible for internal IT strategy and implementation. "For our internal corporate use, we needed a backup solution that was reliable and powerful, yet easy to use.
"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."
