BOSTON & TAIPEI, Taiwan -- (Business Wire)
Iron
Mountain® Incorporated (NYSE: IRM), the storage and information
management company, today announced it has opened a new facility in
Taiwan for offsite tape vaulting, providing a secure and cost-effective
option for storing and protecting backup and archival data. The
facility, located in Hsinchu, is the company’s first-ever in Taiwan and
its first service offering in the market.
With the rise in popularity of Taiwan as a location for data centers,
the need for secure data storage has grown, as global companies look for
ways to ensure their information remains protected and available.
Storing data offsite on backup tapes remains the most secure and
cost-effective way to ensure that data is protected and
readily-available for recovery in the event of a disaster. Iron
Mountain, which stores more than 89 million backup tapes in secure
facilities around the world, is uniquely-positioned to meet this need
with an industry-leading offsite tape vaulting solution and a proven
chain of custody to ensure information is securely protected. The new
900-square meter Taiwan media vault can hold 400,000 backup tapes as
well as 2,000 closed backup media storage containers.
“Many of our global clients have seen their Taiwan operations grow
robustly over the past few years and have asked us to establish a
presence there to serve them,” said Peter Hwang, managing director for
Greater China and vice president of Business Development for Iron
Mountain. “Opening this facility and vault to provide offsite tape
vaulting lets us support those customers while also positioning us to
help the growing data center market in Taiwan. And it gives us an
important foothold in the market for when we’re ready to expand our
product and service offerings.”
