Online Backup 1/2 Way Around the World

When a long time DataPreserve customer asked, "Can we backup data from Egypt?" our engineers said, "There's no reason why not."

Phoenix based Kinematics Manufacturing, Inc. runs international operations from its location near the Deer Valley Airport. Over the last 14 years the company has grown from a 2-man shop to become the largest manufacturer of slewing drives in the world and make a variety of other complementary gearboxes for OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers).

"Our marketplace approach is simple; we listen to our customer’s desires and find a way to bring the ideas to life. We’ve spent the last 14 years making geared solutions others thought were impossible and hold 11 patents to our name." explains David Pope, President of Kinematics Manufacturing.

With success comes responsibility for protecting the data and intellectual property behind the success. Kinematics Manufacturing chose DataPreserve to backup and store its critical business data. Continues Mr. Pope, "We backup our client data, our forecasts and Outlook files, as a minimum. With DataPreserve we know our data is accessible and available if and when we need to restore it."

Kinematics Manufacturing recently added an account for its Egypt office. Any concerns about connectivity or latency were quickly dismissed. The DataPreserve Pro software indexed, encrypted, compressed and de-duplicated the data, and transferred it effectively from 1/2 way around the world to the DataPreserve private cloud data center in Phoenix.
