挑战
Server Sentry faced a significant challenge in differentiating itself in the maturing Australian MSP market. With only two or three engineers on staff, the company struggled to provide adequate 24x7 services to its customers. The high cost of hiring additional engineers in Australia further complicated the situation. Server Sentry needed a solution that could offer round-the-clock support, specialized expertise, and full problem resolution without requiring a substantial increase in in-house technical staff.
关于客户
Server Sentry is a specialized IT support service provider based in Melbourne, Australia. For over a decade, the company has been offering a range of services including data protection, web hosting, network monitoring and management, and technical support to business owners and IT managers across Australia. As the company has grown, it has increasingly relied on its partnership with Continuum to provide comprehensive IT support. Server Sentry is distinguished as Australia's only managed services provider offering a live 24x7 IT help desk service, thanks to its collaboration with Continuum.
解决方案
Server Sentry partnered with Continuum to leverage its fully-integrated Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) platform, Network Operations Center (NOC), and U.S.-based Help Desk. Continuum's RMM platform is an intelligent alerting system supported by over 650 technicians at the NOC, who monitor network and device health and resolve up to 90% of routine tickets. This allows Server Sentry's in-house staff to focus on client relationships and business growth. Additionally, Continuum's Help Desk provides direct end-user support for desktop-related issues, operating as a white-labeled service that answers calls as Server Sentry. This setup has enabled Server Sentry to offer 24x7 support without the need for additional in-house staff.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
