Reduxio System's Instant Data Backup and Recovery Reduces Dingley Press' Financial Risks While Growing Its Business

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 10, 2016) - Dingley Press, one of the world's leading catalog printers and distributors, is growing its business by reducing its financial risks and improving operational efficiencies using storage solutions by Reduxio Systems and implementation partner Northern Data Solutions.

Based in Maine, Dingley Press specializes in high-quality catalog printing for companies and started out as L.L. Bean's in-house printing operation. Since then, Dingley Press has expanded operations with customers in more than 40 states nationwide. In order to meet weekly mailings deadlines to more than 15 million U.S. addresses, Dingley Press relies on its IT infrastructure to operate around the clock.

In the event of an outage during print production, every minute counts. Each hour is valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars. For this reason, Northern Data Solutions recommended the Reduxio HX550 ™ multi-tier system with Reduxio's BackDating ™ in order to recover data instantaneously, limiting lost productivity from 30 minutes to as little as two minutes.

"The most critical part of Dingley's business is print production," said Dingley Press Systems Manager Michael Martell. "An outage can have a domino effect where a missed printing target can require a reschedule of the entire week's production processes from print through mailing. To meet business growth demands, we are optimizing our storage solutions, in order to reduce downtime while simultaneously managing our IT costs. Reduxio and Northern Data Solutions helped us vastly improve the performance and reliability of our existing solutions immediately, minimizing down time while limiting our potential financial losses and lost productivity."

The Reduxio HX550 multi-tier storage solution with BackDating is now the core storage solution for all Dingley Press's core IT applications.

• Dingley's core industrial process and inventory controls, based on Microsoft SQL Server Database, are running on tens of VMware-based virtual servers. Using Reduxio, Dingley is able to improve server utilization and save on hardware costs while reducing the time it takes to get back online after an outage. Dingley's IT department is now able to improve productivity and devote more time to advancing strategic IT projects to improve business operations.
