Manage your most demanding workloads from edge to core to cloud

The future is hybrid and multi-cloud, creating a fragmented environment of distributed data. From edge to core, core to edge, private cloud to public cloud, the range and sources of your data is expanding. The impact can be added complexity for your storage and data management strategy.

But it doesn’t have to be confusing. We can add help you to regain control of your Unstructured Data and exploit the data explosion. We have industry-leading solutions to support your most demanding workloads, no matter where they reside.

Tame the rapid growth of Unstructured Data

In the age of the digital revolution, organisations are having to manage more data than ever before. The vast proportion of the growth has been in unstructured file data. This unstructured data presents a continuous challenge as data growth is exceeding 50% year on year and the diversity of sources generating unstructured content is also increasing.

We provide a best in class combination of scale-out file systems, object storage and cloud storage, designed to provide ease of management and robust data protection to help you tame the rise of unstructured data. Our Unstructured Data Solutions are hybrid-cloud enabled, flexible and scalable to meet any capacity and performance requirement.

Scale-out
storage

Through consolidation and automation, scale-out systems eliminate complex and costly siloed infrastructure. They consolidate and support a wide range of file workloads on a single platform with multi-protocol support, including automated storage tiering to object storage and public cloud. Scale-out solutions allow you to scale infinitely, no matter how large your data environment grows, making them ideal for data-rich organisations.

  • Simplified management via a single platform
  • Unlock new levels of efficiency
  • Access to powerful analytics
  • Unlimited growth potential

Object
storage

Object storage has enabled organisations to develop web scale environments similar to the big cloud providers, freeing them from previous restrictions of traditional infrastructures. Create flexible, fault tolerant environments using commodity hardware to increase scale and reduce cost. Object storage is an ideal choice for those looking for hybrid options. Common uses include data archiving, backup, web and mobile applications.

  • Options for public and private cloud or on-premise
  • Anytime, anywhere access to your data
  • Versatile applications
  • Simplified management

Hybrid and cloud storage

Microsoft Azure has become the public cloud of choice for many organisations, with datacentres in the UK and spanning the globe. Azure provides a safe and adaptable environment for a range of applications, including; data storage, backup, disaster recovery, Active Directory and more. Azure offers organisations scalable and flexible options to complement their own on-premise infrastructure in a hybrid strategy or as an integral part of a multi-cloud approach.

Trustmarque is UK partner of choice for Dell EMC ECS

We are proud to become the first and only partner approved to install Dell EMC Elastic Cloud Storage (ECS) in the UK and Ireland.
Dell EMC ECS is an enterprise-grade object storage platform that allows organisations to flexibly capture, store, protect, and manage unstructured data at scale. ECS can be used on its own or it can be partnered with Dell EMC Isilon, a scale-out network attached storage solution used by many Trustmarque customers.

“Alliances with consultative lead organisations such as Trustmarque – that are highly skilled and who can support customers with their IT transformation journey – are essential for the Dell EMC Unstructured Data Solutions business. Together, we are now poised to jointly capitalise on a whole range of new emerging workloads requiring a world class object-based platform.” Charles Wilce, Senior Sales Director EMEA, Unstructured Data Solutions, Dell Technologies

NBI Partnership

The Challenge: NBI Partnership had been using Dell EMC Isilon Scale-Out Network Attached Storage for around eight years, but they wanted to expand the capacity, update older components and reduce the cost per terabyte. They also wanted to implement an object storage system to enhance workflows and data sharing.

The Solution: Installation of new Dell EMC Isilon Equipment including Isilon Network Attached Storage and Dell EMC ECS Object Storage.

The Outcome: “We have achieved exactly what we wanted; more flexible data management workflows and the capacity to build out or scale up quickly. We can take data directly from the lab environment to the HPC servers and move this data into the object storage for fast, secure hosting.”

PML logo

Plymouth Marine Laboratory

The Challenge: As a leading marine research charity, PML has a requirement to backup colossal amounts of data, safely and promptly. However, their backup and archive infrastructure was out-of-date and the reliance on backup to tapes was placing unnecessary pressure on the teams to prioritise and process.

The Solution: Trustmarque, in partnership with Dell EMC, provided a comprehensive Backup and Disaster Recovery infrastructure, utilising Dell EMC Networker and 500TB Dell EMC Gen3 Elastic Cloud Storage.

The Outcome: “It is great to have a modern approach to backup. We have the best of both worlds; tape for long-term retention and ECS for high-volume storage requirements. Soon, we will have access to a high-speed backup window that supports our business continuity, Backup and Disaster Recovery strategies. I think we can sleep at night, knowing that all our data is safe and recoverable.”

St Monica Trust

The Challenge: They needed a central storage solution to support the virtualisation of 12 physical servers. The goal was to accelerate the organisation’s adoption of modern computing and virtualisation in order to improve performance and increase the resiliency of their application and server infrastructure.

The Solution: Western Digital IntelliFlash T4100.

The Outcome: “By virtualising our servers we have made much better use of our estate. We have more flexibility, increased performance, increased redundancy and we can access storage much quicker. We’ve also significantly reduced our in-use storage by almost 50% due to compression and de-duplication.”
