TORONTO-March 2, 2010-Asigra Inc., a leading Cloud Backup and recovery software provider since 1986, today announced a strategic relationship with NetApp that will enable service providers to deploy a tightly integrated hardware-software solution for the delivery of backup and recovery as a service (BRaaS). As the leading software technology supporting the NetApp BRaaS solution, Asigra enables scalability for deployments in any size business environment with the security and advanced management required for enterprise-class cloud backup services. The result is a single, unified cloud backup and recovery solution that empowers service providers to meet demanding service-level agreements while improving storage infrastructure efficiencies.
As the adoption of cloud computing services continues to rise, it is clear that backup will be among the top applications considered for implementation in 2010 and beyond1. Service providers seeking greater competitive advantage in this evolving market will increasingly rely on the vendors they partner with to help in achieving success, said Eran Farajun, Executive Vice President, Asigra. Asigra and NetApp are perfectly matched from both a technology and business partnering model with service provider programs that redefine the vendor-partner experience. As a result of our strategic alignment, service providers not only benefit from the best-of-breed technology currently available, but from years of experience that could enhance their prosperity.
The Asigra and NetApp BRaaS solution is designed to help service providers rapidly deploy and accelerate time to market of the industrys most feature-rich cloud backup solution. The integrated cloud backup and recovery solution addresses service provider challenges of interoperability, scalability, security, performance and ease-of-use by combining production-hardened technology from two industry leaders. Asigra and NetApps BRaaS solution incorporates advanced features that include:
Agentless mass deployment and operation

Single unified storage infrastructure for fast time-to-market and leading efficiencies
Another advantage of the Asigra and NetApp BRaaS solution is the vast installation and configuration flexibility that service providers now have. Public, private and hybrid cloud implementations are all service provider deployment options. Regardless of how the hardware and software are deployed, organizations have an enterprise-wide backup and recovery solution to protect all computing systems and manage under a single application without the added expense, security issues and hassle of countless software agents.
In conjunction with the solutions best-of-breed technology are the corresponding business processes and best practices of how to bring a profitable cloud backup service to market quickly, from a single storage infrastructure, and with the best ROI.

The Asigra and NetApp BRaaS solution eliminates the need to manage different backup tools to protect both physical and virtual environments as well as business applications. Instead, the single integrated solution unifies all backup and recovery processes to reduce complexity and keep support requirements to a minimum, said Daniel Milburn, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Hosting and Infrastructure Services for Consonus, an IT solutions provider using the Asigra and NetApp solution to deliver cloud backup services.
