Kawasaki Selects Venyu for Data Protection and Data Recovery

Looking to achieve seamless data recovery, protection and storage, Kawasaki MotorsCorp., U.S.A. and Canadian Kawasaki Motors Inc. have selected Venyu RestartIT.

To enable the next step in data recovery by empowering global organizations to put a recovery plan and processes in place to continue day-to-day operations in the event of a disaster, Venyu’s RestartIT Plus platform is a turn-key solution that works across Windows, virtualized servers and IBM (News - Alert) AS/400 equipment. 

Venyu’s RestartIT is built on Recovery Time Objective (RTO) metrics, or the measurement of time between an outage and the moment that data is available again, the company stated in a press release.

“Venyu is solidifying its position as a leader in enterprise-grade data and commercial cloud solutions for North America,” said Scott Thompson, Venyu CEO. “Companies like Kawasaki need a partner capable of providing verified RTO documentation and contingency plans in case they experience a disaster. Venyu is answering the call and continues to do so for companies in the technology, healthcare, legal and financial services industries.”

To provide seamless system recovery when organizations need it most, the solution combines DR-Grade, online backup with the VMware-virtualized recovery platform. The Kawasaki family of companies is one of the world’s leading makers of motorcycles and recreation vehicles.

With 326 employees in Continental U.S. and Canada, Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. provides support for more than 1,500 power sport dealers and over 8,000 small engine and power product dealers.

Recently, Spacenet, a broadband communications and managed networks provider,  called on Venyu to overhaul its backup, data protection and Disaster Recovery strategy. In order to better store, protect and optimize data and support servers for Spacenet’s varied customer base of Fortune 500 businesses, government entities and industrial companies, Venyu will be migrating Spacenet’s tape backup system to a more secure, highly available and more resilient cloud storage system.
