Today, any.cloud has grown to serve customers in more than 30 countries. IBM Cloud has empowered any.cloud to expand to a wide range of industries including legal, distribution, pharmaceutical and banking organizations located in Denmark and internationally. In addition to providing cloud backup for IT infrastructure, any.cloud offers cloud-to-cloud backup for customers looking to protect data stored on another vendor’s cloud.
“Every company needs a good business continuity partner,” explains Frimodt-MØller. “Every company needs a strong, reliable backup partner and some also need the applications we offer. With IBM Cloud, we can serve a broad international market and deliver high availability and fast implementation.”
To meet performance guarantees and customer needs, any.cloud can readily scale systems up or down on demand. “In the business continuity field, clients need to grow and shrink the solution all the time,” adds Frimodt-MØller. “For example, a disaster case might need us to turn on some host machines, help with the disaster, make sure the client is back up and running and close the services. IBM Cloud allows us to rent physical hardware and easily turn on and shut down servers. This is an important advantage because IBM competitors would probably lock us in for two, three, or even four years.”
Resilient, redundant and designed for high availability, the IBM Cloud network meets any.cloud’s high standards for local access, low latency and certified security. “Working with IBM has been really great, and their technical support team is always ready to help us,” concludes Frimodt-MØller. “At the end of the day, it’s all about trust, and I can sleep tight knowing that our clients’ data is safe on IBM Cloud.”
