New Solution Ensures Secure Transport for Mission-Critical Data
Milan, Italy. May 23, 2012. ADVA Optical Networking announced today that Equens
S.p.A., a leader in payment services for European financial customers, has
selected the FSP 3000 to connect its data centers in Milan, Italy. Equens
S.p.A.'s network uses the FSP 3000 to transport mission-critical data and highly
confidential information. To ensure the integrity and availability of this data,
the network has been configured for maximum security and highest availability
focusing on business continuity, disk mirroring and disaster recovery.
"Our business depends upon the reliability and high availability of our network.
It's critical to both our success and our customers' success," explained Guido
Gatti, general manager operations, Equens S.p.A. "ADVA Optical Networking
addresses these demands. In fact, that's why they've been a trusted partner for
so long. The architecture has been implemented to always ensure the maximum
availability of the data. This ensures protection on your investment and that
your data is always available and accessible. The FSP 3000 is recognized in the
financial community as the one data transport solution with the highest
certification program in the storage environment."
The FSP 3000 is a scalable Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) system built
to specific enterprise needs and networking demands. The modular design ensures
a flexible network foundation and securely delivers mission-critical data across
large distances and multiple protocols. Equens S.p.A. is now able to optimize
its bandwidth use with several wavelengths, and can easily upgrade or connect to
other systems, saving time and resources.
"We designed this network with several key objectives: high availability,
scalability, small footprint and low power consumption," said Fabrice Jean, vice
president, sales, Northern and Southwest Europe, ADVA Optical Networking. "By
doing this, we enable Equens S.p.A. to continue offering exceptional service to
its finance customers, while also abiding by strict service level agreements and
regulations. Having already deployed our equipment in some of the world's
leading financial markets, we have extensive experience to draw upon and were
able to build a solution that exceeds all current demands and will grow with the
organization."
