The Bombay Company, Inc. designs and markets a unique line of home furnishings and decorative accessories-including lamps, prints, and mirrors-through specialty catalogs, the Internet, and 422 retail outlets in the United States and around the world. The challenge for the IT department at Bombay was to keep the company's inventory data accurate and available. It gained 1.5 TB of data storage using DellEMC storage area network (SAN) installed by Dell Professional Services, upgraded older servers with 20 Dell PowerEdge 2650 servers, deployed Dell PowerVault 136T tape library for fast backups and managed file serving with Dell PowerVault 755 network attached storage (NAS) server.
