Tarmin Inc has been chosen by international ICT service provider Getronics to power its new intelligent data management and storage services portfolio of offerings.
With data growth already straining a majority of mid- and large-size organizations, and data growth rates in excess of 100 percent per year being recorded in certain segments, the need for a cost-effective, complete solution to manage organizations' unstructured data throughout its lifecycle is growing across industries. The addition of a Tarmin-backed solution means that Getronics is now positioned to help its clients better control growing storage costs while taking advantage of their ever-increasing stores of unstructured data.
The Tarmin GridBank™ integrated solution will initially focus in three key areas of need amongst Getronics customers:
• Enterprise private cloud as a Service with integrated eDiscovery capabilities in support of proactive litigation preparedness -- Enables organizations to outsource the management of their non-production data to achieve cost savings and realize improved long-term data management with lower risk compared to in-house alternatives.
• Exchange email archives -- Enables organizations to benefit from a superior functioning Exchange archiving solution for the streamlined management of terabytes of email in a cost-optimized manner.

"Teaming with an international service provider like Getronics not only extends the reach of our GridBank software solutions but it also allows us to help them deliver compelling, enterprise-class data management offerings for their innovative cloud, email archiving and big data applications."
