LeftHand Networks Provides A Just-In-Time Storage Solution For Medical Center

With three hospitals spread across the Atlanta metro area and various health centers offering a full range of comprehensive medical services, Tanner Health System is a thriving regional medical center serving western Georgia and eastern Alabama.

The daily challenges involved in managing data for an entity of this size and scope require an IT team who is ready for anything and a storage solution that exceeds expectations.

Tanner decided to stripe and mirror data across each of the two clusters, utilizing SAN/iQ's Network RAID Level 2, to further ensure data availability across the environment. LeftHand's SAN/iQ Snap was also implemented as a safeguard, creating point-in-time copies of the new SAN's volumes. The snapshot feature benefits Tanner by dramatically shortening the time it takes to restore from a backup.
