Aflex Software, an authorized representative of Acronis, Parallels and ASPLinux throughout Russia and CIS countries, announces the completion of delivery of Acronis business continuity and data recovery products according to the contract with governmental naval company "Rosatomflot". The contract was conducted by "Inforcer-North" (Russian name of "OOO Inforcer-Sever") company, authorized partner of Aflex Software.

Federal corporation "Rosatomflot" (previously known as FGUP "Atomflot") is Russian naval company which runs national civil atomic sea transport. Company’s office and fleet, including seven various class nuclear-powered ice-breakers along with transport and fuel ships are quartered in Murmansk. Corporate business-critical data is processed and stored by means of complex IT-infrastructure.

In order to build effective business continuity solution Rosatomflot’s IT officers were looking for solution for both server and workstation backup and data recovery as well as enterprise grade disk image deployment software. Vast feature listing and ability to provide an integrated solution played key role in choosing the software provider along with available pricing. After thorough marketing research the decision was made to purchase 250 copies of Acronis True Image Echo Workstation, 250 copies of Acronis Snap Deploy and 250 copies Acronis True Image Universal Restore Workstation in addition to 7 copies of Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server from Aflex Software’s reseller partner.

"Whole regions’ economic stability depends on business efficiency of federal enterprises. Ensuring business continuity is the key factor of such enterprises management, – said Artyom Khazov, Chief Sales Officer at Aflex Software. – Thus, we consider the delivery of Acronis’ solutions to Rosatomflot as our contribution to Russian atomic fleet development".
