Case Study: Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton Presents A Winning Case For Disaster Recovery

Source: InMage

Sheppard Mullin's data centers are centralized in its Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. offices, with a planned transition to a collocation facility in Scottsdale, Arizona. The heterogeneous IT infrastructure is Microsoft Windows-centric, utilizing SQL Server as the back end database application and VMware for server virtualization. Although the firm used tape backup and offsite storage, the threat of regional disasters prompted the search for more feature-rich disaster recovery technology.

"Disaster recovery is the most important IT project at our firm," said Donna Paulson, CIO, Sheppard Mullin. "In the aftermath of 9/11, the entire legal industry took a hard look at the adequacy of existing data protection standards. Although it's a down economy, any budget item relating to DR is immediately recognized as a necessity. Additionally, our clients trust our ability to protect and recover any necessary data at any time."
