Growing air quality company expands its data protection with Yosemite Backup solutionsIntroduction
Marina Mechanical offers a full range of HVACR and Indoor Air Quality services including consulting, design, construction, maintenance, 24 hour service, automated temperature controls, process piping and specialized ventilation systems.
The company has been a San Francisco Bay Area provider of innovative air quality solutions for over twenty years. Marina has a full compliment of services including clean rooms, performance contracting, indoor ventilation, air quality and many others.
Challenge
Marina Mechanical is a family-owned and operated business with a wide range of business clients. As the company moved into the 21st century, doing business smarter meant adopting technology to streamline business operations. Implementing a multi-server network environment created the need for an innovative data protection solution.
Marina looked for the most economical solution that also provided ease-of-use, heterogeneity and the ability to grow as their business needs changed. As with most companies, employees are retaining more and more data for longer periods of time and timely access to that data is crucial. With an ever growing number of existing long-term and prospective clients, it became crucial to customer service and retention to maintain access to data. Marina researched several backup products to define a backup software solution that could match its technology, uptime and scalability needs.
Solution
Yosemite Technologies is a leader in OEM bundled backup products with strategic relationships with HP, Exabyte, Dell and Gateway to name a few. As a small business, Marina first took advantage of the bundled single server solution offered with Quantum-branded tape devices.
The bundled solution provided a heterogeneous backup product that included single server backup and bare metal disaster recovery. This yielded immediate results because Marina had a complete out of the box solution to satisfy their backup and recovery needs.
Benefits
Marina rolled out the Yosemite solution within minutes. “Yosemite’s technology has exceeded our expectations and is a partner we plan to grow with,” stated Ted Hussey. Ever growing, Marina has recently added additional servers to their network and has future plans to implement a Linux mail server. In the process they have expanded Yosemite TapeWare to protect additional servers and are currently utilizing the Yosemite web gateway which allows the company to monitor and schedule backups from a web browser. “As a small business, I wear many hats. The ability to use the web to manage my backups is invaluable.”

Ted Hussey, IT Manager for Marina
Small business challenges require IT organizations to be nimble and provide the technologies and services that large business do, without the benefit of a large infrastructure or budget. Marina was able to provide its growing network a sound data protection strategy that was cost-effective and delivered a quick and reliable backup solution.
