PRO TECHnology implements digital archiving solution at Dubai Municipality

"Dubai Municipality had to archive all its old and new images in a digital format. This was essential for the PR Department as they needed to access large amount of data on a constant basis" said Ali Saadawi, Technical and Account Manager of Pro Technology.

NEXSAN Technologies delivers with ATAboy2x which contains 14 hard drives, each drive with a size of 300GB giving it a total capacity of 4.2 TB said Mr. Shaban Taha, Technical Director of PRO TECHnology. Dubai Municipality users will greatly benefit from Nexsan's award winning Enterprise ATA RAID which delivers a failsafe 24/7 operation for uninterrupted business continuity. This advanced architecture allows single or multiple drives to be designated as hot spares and also allows field updates of the ATA interface design and remote firmware updates, which are supported using FTP adds Mr. Shaban.

Nexsan's ATA Boy2X is designed for maximum flexibility and scalability, all of the critical components in the ATAboy2x, including the RAID controllers and host connections, are user-pluggable. This feature results in reliable, fully redundant data protection while empowering users to maximize the return on their Nexsan's hardware investment explains Mr. Arun Vaishampayan, NEXSAN Technologies Vice President"

With the powerful NEXSAN ATABoy2X in place at Dubai Municipality, all the photos and data can be accessed by the employees in a quicker way. The digital archiving software automatically takes an original copy and saves it in Nexsan's ATA Boy2X which can be accessed by the server all the time. This is important because all the records or photos are located in one place and they are not scattered, adds Ali Saadawi.

The ability of Nexsan's ATAboy2x's unique combination of high performance and enormous capacity provides exceptional value that enhances various digital storage applications, such as live on-line data, rich media, digital film, uncompressed HD, broadcast/VOD and other mission critical applications, explains Mr. Jamal Maraqa, Managing Director of PRO TECHnology.
