Actifio provides MDwise with backup capabilities and a data platform for the futureBOSTON, MA – January 31, 2018 — /BackupReview.info/ — Actifio, the Data-as-a-Service company, today announced a partnership with MDwise, a nonprofit health maintenance organization focused on providing health coverage to individuals and families located in Indiana. Now, through Actifio and the company’s partnership with Online Tech, MDwise has reliable data protection and ten-year data retention that meets regulatory compliance while being user friendly. Founded in 1994, MDwise is a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) to more than 350,000 members throughout the state of Indiana, focused on health coverage for Indiana individuals and families. Because MDwise must maintain data records for seven to ten years, they were running regular backups and shipping tapes to physical storage spaces. It was an expensive and time-consuming process. Eventually their backup appliance started to show signs of instability. They also feared data media storage corruption, and data recall ten years in the future seemed uncertain. The difficulties for MDwise extended beyond backup; their entire IT infrastructure was aging. They needed assurance of a complete and reliable data retention environment that was compliant with federal HIPAA regulations. That meant not only secure data storage, but also an IT partner equipped to provide comprehensive and secure systems for data retrieval, security, and disaster recovery. MDwise selected Online Tech as their service provider and Actifio to manage and protect their critical data. Operating seven Midwest data centers, Online Tech could provide the secure and compliant enterprise cloud resources that MDwise required. With Actifio, now data backups that once took nearly 24 hours can be completed in minutes. Backup data is deduplicated and compressed and made available directly to MDwise staff through a single console with secure permissions. “We were managing an unstable environment and jumping through hoops to do it,” said John Goerges, Director of IT at MDwise. “Now, it’s fast and easy. We save time for our local engineers so they can focus on other, more strategic things. Our archiving costs are much lower. Restore times are immediate, and the native backup format eliminates vendor lock-in.” “MDwise manages an enormous amount of data, and they are constantly needing to produce reports and extracts that comply with state and federal mandates,” said Ash Ashutosh, founder and CEO of Actifio. “With Actifio and Online Tech, the company is seeing drastic changes in process, helping to transform how they work and do business.” Immediate benefits include:
MDwise has begun to further exploit the Actifio platform’s versatility for their application developers, providing direct access for self-service database refresh and smoothing workflow functions to automate development and database testing.
