Tulip Telecom launched two new services to cash in on the emerging opportunities in the managed back-up and cloud computing space, and is targeting small and medium enterprises (SME), said a senior company official. The Mumbai-based company has partnered with the Bangalore-based EMC Data Storage Systems (India) to offer the services out of its new datacentre in Bangalore.
"Managed back-up services can reduce the total cost by nearly 40 percent and increase the data restoration success rate to around 99 percent from 60 percent. The loss of data during restoration means loss of business opportunity," said Deepinder Bedi, Executive Director at Tulip Telecom. He said globally the managed back-up services market is around $4 billion and the hosted (remote) back-up service is around $1.1 billion.
