Bahrain’s Ministry of Youth and Sports Affairs (MYS) Saves $20,000 Cost of Buying Additional Hardware by Archiving Content with Metalogix

Bahrain’s Ministry of Youth and Sports Affairs (MYS) was managing two file servers holding 2.5 TB of business-critical data accessed by 300 users across five offices and faced the prospect of buying an additional server (BHD 8,000 / USD 20,000) to meet storage needs while guaranteeing zero downtime and strong security. The Ministry turned to Metalogix Software and its partner IPP Technologies and selected Metalogix Archive Manager for Files to address the challenge.

Metalogix Software’s Archive Manager for Files was implemented by IPP Technologies to transparently archive older documents to lower-cost storage tiers while preserving seamless access and strong retention controls. The solution allowed MYS to avoid the ~USD 20,000 hardware purchase, stay within its file-server maintenance budget, maintain uninterrupted access for 300 employees across five locations (including global web access), and gain centralized management and compliance features.
