Case Studies
Lloyds TSB - Simplyfing Business Continuity
Lloyds TSB Products and Markets found itself not just moving to its new HQ at 10 Gresham
Street in the City, but also with a pressing need to provide an off-site data back-up solution in
its out-of-town DR site.
The task? To help them re-design and integrate their storage and back-up systems.
A cumbersome, costly and risk-prone procedure was crying out for a solution when S3’s assessment of the situation was invited. In close discussion with Colin Everett, Head of IT Strategy and Architecture at Lloyds TSB Products & Markets, it became clear that the primary drivers for the project were manageability and scalability though, as with any major project, cost effectiveness remained a factor.
“Thanks to the team at S3, we have the confidence that our new flagship building at 10 Gresham Street and our state-of-the-art trading floor are complemented by the perfect
technological solution. It gives us precisely what Lloyds TSB Corporate Markets needed:
cutting-edge technology for our back-up and contingency operations.

British Library - Creating A Digital Archive
“We carried out an extensive evaluation of all the main storage vendors and even beyond that,”
says Paul Wooler (British Library Technical Analyst). “Both the DOM Programme and the Microsoft Digitisation Project require that we keep more than one copy of the data, replicated between our sites at Boston Spa in Yorkshire, St Pancras in London, and a third site at the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth.”
The British Library and S3, entered into detailed discussions to establish the library’s precise needs and budget. As a result, the library has now standardised on Nexsan SATABeasts as its storage system of choice, with twelve currently in action, which includes six for the Microsoft digitisation and four for the DOM System.
