THE PROFILE

The company is an ISO-certified marine network installer offering desktop study, marine route survey, engineering design, installation and maintenance services for submarine cable systems worldwide.

THE CHALLENGE

The company provides many services such as studies and marine surveys around the world with 2 locations in Canada. They were having difficulty with a significant amount of data growth. IT managers did not have the time to deal with this issue within their 100 TB infrastructure capacity.

They needed a solution to:  

  • Delegate the responsibility of this issue through a secure tool to end-users
  • Identify which data to keep or remove
  • Find a way to empower users with the creation and deletion of data
  • Search for files and folders in different locations
  • Optimize working methods to reduce unnecessary data creation

Within 3-months, they deployed DataIntell in their facility and trained their users to look at data scattered in their 2 offices. This tool gave them a single pane of glass of all data for their multi-facilities infrastructure. With DataIntell, their users were able to find duplicate and unused files while quickly and safely monitoring a daily progression of the optimization of their storage usage.

THE RESULTS

Initial situation:

  • Total storage usage: 73.07 TB with 5 782 118 files
  • Duplicate files: 34.14 TB which represented 47% of their storage

After only One Month:

  • Total storage usage: 59.21 TB with 4 960 947 files
  • Duplicate files: 19.46 TB which represents 33% of their storage

 

In less than a month, the company got rid of almost 15 TB of duplicate files and gained 13 TB of storage capacity. This represents a reduction of 18% in total usage.
