Business Solutions magazine features Aberdeen LLC and their BlackWatch backup server as the cover story in the June 2003 issue. In addition to manufacturing high-end server solutions, Aberdeeninc.com is now able to provide customers with servers they cannot get from other server companies.

Santa Fe Springs, California - "When profits began to disappear, Aberdeen LLC re-engineered its business to manufacture solutions for the enterprise market. Aberdeen LLC receives praise by Business Solutions magazine in the June 2003 cover story written by Ed Miseta. "Aberdeen decided the high-end server market was the right place to be, so the company refocused its efforts on providing server solutions to business customers. Aberdeen is now able to provide customers with servers they cannot get from other server companies," writes Ed Miseta. Providing unique and custom configured servers is not the only selling point helping to win deals from companies such as Lockheed Martin, Boeing and Novartis. Aberdeen leads the industry by offering a 5-Year warranty on every rackmount server sold.

"In addition to manufacturing high-end server solutions, Aberdeen LLC also creates backup solutions for its customers. Dubbed the BlackWatch Series but nicknamed the Backup Monsters, the additions to Aberdeen's line of servers were designed to provide scalable and affordable backup solutions for the shared network environment," writes Ed Miseta. The competitive advantage of the BlackWatch is not just the unbelievably low cost of $2.50 per gigabyte of storage but it is the utilization of hard disk storage, which is exponentially faster and more accurate than the traditional tape backup. The BlackWatch is a complete backup storage and disaster recovery solution, when configured with the optional CD-RW, internal tape drive and redundant power supply.

Alternatives to the costly tape only solutions have been few and far between. "Midsized organizations with a single facility and multiple servers face a challenge with their backups. Those backups are cumbersome and an annoyance. As a result, they are oftentimes postponed or ignored altogether. We set out to make the task easy and automatic." says Jack Tateel, VP of Sales for Aberdeen. The BlackWatch provides an advantage over tape and its lengthy RTO (Recovery Time Objective) which is basically the acceptable time till recovery. By providing up to 2TB (terabytes) of hot-swappable IDE hard disk space the BlackWatch becomes exponentially faster and more accurate than the traditional tape backup.
