Dell has announced that it has been awarded a storage solution contract by hedge fund administration services provider Quintillion.
Quintillion’s investment in Dell’s Compellent storage area network will allow multiple servers to be connected to a centralised pool of disk storage, allowing for improved system administration and easier data management.
“Over the past six years Quintillion has continued to grow in size and stature,” said Charles Gillanders, Quintillion. “Throughout this time we have installed a number of new solutions based on our changing data needs but as the company grew so did our storage requirements.
“The Dell data storage capabilities provided Quintillion with a solution which was realistically scalable for us as a company. The Dell team has worked with us from inception right through to implementation and beyond with superb post installation support. The move to this solution will save us a significant amount of money over time as the solutions enable us to be far more efficient compared to our previous storage solution.”
Liam Halpin, general manager, Dell Ireland added: “Quintillion is one of Ireland’s foremost accounting and investor services provider and as such, the company needs a solution that is capable of adapting quickly to business growth.
“Quintillion’s investment in Dell’s Compellent solution will enable the company to increase its storage area network (SAN) performance without moving to a new system. This solution will be easier to manage and maintain while tasks will run quicker and smoother than ever.”
