Solution: Backup Appliance for Local + Remote Data Centers
As a pharmaceutical enterprise subject to strict compliance and audit requirements, ZuoLi faced challenges in retaining legacy system data and ensuring availability of GXP-compliant information. Traditional storage methods exposed the company to risks of data loss, hardware damage, and audit failures, threatening both business continuity and regulatory compliance.
